Yes, the search engine, I love the future... here it is, I found it:

wikipedia wrote:

One of the famous myths of Pan involves the origin of his pan flute, fashioned from lengths of hollow reed. Syrinx was a lovely water-nymph of Arcadia, daughter of Landon, the river-god. As she was returning from the hunt one day, Pan met her. To escape from his importunities, the fair nymph ran away and didn't stop to hear his compliments. He pursued from Mount Lycaeum until she came to her sisters who immediately changed her into a reed. When the air blew through the reeds, it produced a plaintive melody. The god, still infatuated, took some of the reeds, because he could not identify which reed she became, and cut seven pieces (or according to some versions, nine), joined them side by side in gradually decreasing lengths, and formed the musical instrument bearing the name of his beloved Syrinx. Henceforth Pan was seldom seen without it.

I found that here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_%28god%29


"Now birds record new harmonie, And trees do whistle melodies;
Now everything that nature breeds, Doth clad itself in pleasant weeds."

I just discovered Wikeipedia does not have an entry for jinashi shakuhachi.

Heresy. Sheer heresy.

I would venture to say that it goes to the oldest flute which also happens to be the worlds oldest musical instrument.

It was found in Germany.

Sorry for my answer on the top...

Since the question is on flutemaking, I find myself thinking if the "birth place of flute is the birth place of flute" or where it is... so I was confused, then I asked to me where and when a flute born, and said to myself "yes, the birth place of flute is the birth place of flute, sure"... so confused  I was that I am still thinking where I am...euheuehue

Peace to all...
