About the Maker
Ralph Sweet was a Connecticut-based woodworker and instrument maker known for his Sweetheart line of simple-system flutes. His instruments were designed with accessibility in mind, often appealing to players who wanted a well-made wooden flute without the heft or complexity of larger keyed instruments. Sweet built his flutes in a small workshop and developed a loyal following among folk and traditional players in the United States.
