f*ck yeah flutes

I think it boils down to what you're comfortable with. As long as you're not putting the flute together or holding it in a way that could cause you pain from long-term playing or make your dexterity suffer, it's up to you.

Random picture: my piano stand has had this excerpt from Scheherazade open for weeks now.

I just wanted to apologize for the lack of posts and to let you all know I'm still here :) Hope you guys are having wonderful summers.

You’ll be able to learn piccolo okay, especially if you’ve been playing flute for seven years and having large hands is your only disadvantage. I’m a guy and I have pretty large hands; picking up the piccolo at first after only playing the flute is always, always going to feel weird. But trust me when I say that after enough practice on the piccolo, it will feel just as natural as playing flute. :)
