  • Site Launch!


    We're excited to announce that RudallRose.com is officially live! This relaunch represents countless hours of database work to properly integrate both David Migoya's database and Thomas Johnson's webpage into a unified catalog.

    What's Available Now The site currently features all flute entries from both sources, with about a thousand photographs to browse. While descriptions aren't yet visible, all original descriptions from both databases are preserved in our system. Use the filter system if you'd like to view only flutes with images.

    What's Coming Next We're hand-curating every description to ensure quality before publishing them. This process will continue daily/weekly - if you're curious about specific instruments, we're happy to prioritize those for you. Our initial focus was primarily on the database architecture during development, so the current site design isn't mobile-optimized. The next phase will emphasize mobile-first design improvements. For now, we recommend using a desktop or laptop for the best browsing experience.

    Recent Additions in Queue
    Several flutes from recent auctions and sightings are ready to be added - you'll see these appear in upcoming changelog updates. Special thanks to David Migoya for his invaluable help identifying duplicates and errors during the integration process, and to the entire flute community for trusting us with this important project. Check our roadmap for upcoming features and this changelog for regular updates on descriptions, new entries, and site improvements.
