Yes, I understand that, but I'm still convinced that the both hands work almost as hard when you play the flute (especially xiaos), that there is no need for left-handed people to have special flutes, For some things it's really useful to have special variant for left-handed (for example cissors), but not for flutes. I don't want to discriminate myself if there's no need for that.
No, I'm not ambidextrous, I write, cook, cut, etc. only with my left hand, with the right one I can't.

@edcat: Simply, put, Donsiau didn't play any particular tune. He just improvised (ie "The song is blowing improvisation") See thread at www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=U60LoLkdpJ0Based on my few e-mails to him as well as his facebook activity, it looks like one of the first thing Dongsiau does early at around 7am is to answer questions (maybe realizing he has an international audience . . . . . .)

Thanks Allen,
Shame, I'd like a few more tunes for my low G.

Speaking of lefties vs. righties, I've heard that some right-handed vertical flute players play their instrument with their right hand as the upper hand.
In this way the stronger, more-developed right thumb covers the thumb hole. Offset holes would be reversed.
Maybe for a real beginner it might be a better way to learn to play, but to me it feels totally unnatural...
