The Classical and Early Romantic Flute: A Theoretical and Practical Guide

In 'The Classical and Early Romantic Flute,' flutist Anne Pustlauk sheds light on the complex world of the flute and its performance practice in the Classical and Early Romantic periods. Drawing on primary sources such as instruments, printed and manuscript scores, methods, concert reviews, and other written documents, she provides the reader with all of the information needed to perform the repertoire of the time in a historically informed and inspired way. The book gives theoretical information and practical guidelines illustrated by numerous musical examples. It also includes the history of each of the most common keys of the simple system flute, from a theoretical and practical perspective. To complete the picture, artist biographies of selected flute players and makers bring to life some of the main figures of the flute-playing world of this era.
