Barton introduced the young Fruhauf to the elegant illustrations of the Bloomsbury caricaturist Max Beerbohm (1872–1956), which also made a lasting impression. In the habit of sending fan mail, she sent Barton an admiring letter and soon became a regular visitor to his Manhattan apartment. 1 In particular she was attracted to the work of Ralph Barton (1891–1931), whose humorous drawings were published in Vanity Fair and Judge, among others. Her interest was sparked in high school, when she became aware of the drawings of Hollywood actors appearing in movie magazines as the vogue for celebrity caricature was gaining momentum in the 1920s. I have to say I'm absolutely gobsmacked piscismoon that you got your flute for under $300!!!!! That's how much my parents paid for my gemy 2sp 5 years ago!! I'm really happy for you and jealous xD.New York-born Aline Fruhauf (1907–1978) had a more subtle approach to caricature than the pointed sarcasm one typically associates with the genre. I mean doesn't that particular Emerson model retail under 3k or so? And a lot of the new Jupiter Models, including their Demedci (spelled wrong sorry)are really nice for the money.Īs for Yamaha.I don't particularly like the Yamaha models below the 500 series, including the 211 model, and find them over-priced imho. You won't know what you are missing until you try a decent flute. Why sell yourself short and only look into those two brands when there is so much more (and better) brands out there for the money? If you like it, then okay.
There are MUCH better flutes in the same price range as an Emerson 88b.
You would have been further ahead with a Yamaha student 221. If I would have read this thread before you had made your decision I would have told you not to go with either one of the brands mentioned.
