Sheridan Flute Company This is the homepage of the flutemaker Dana Sheridan. Dana Sheridan began building flutes in 1972 while studying music composition at the Berklee School in Boston, Massachusetts. He has worked with the Wm. S. Haynes, Verne Q. Powell and Brannen Brothers flute companies before introducing Sheridan flutes and head joints in 1982. He lives and works in Cologne, Germany as well as maintaining a workshop in Boston, where he works several times during the year. Until recently, he consulted with the Gemeinhardt Company, giving them a headjoint design for them to produce a "Dana Sheridan Series" headjoint for their Brio Flute. Despite claims by many dealers, these headjoints were not made by Dana Sheridan, but rather by the Gemeinhardt Company. For the second half of 2013, he will be in Boston and can be reached either through this website or at 1-857-991-6648.
