Description
Teachers and flutists at all levels have praised Nancy Toff's The Flute Book, a unique one-stop guide to the flute and its music. The book is organized into four main parts-The Instrument, Performance, The Music, and Repertoire Catalog-and in this Third Edition, Toff has updated the book to reflect technological advancements; new scholarship on baroque flutes; recent developments like those of the contrabass flute, quarter-tone flute, and various manufacturing refinements and experiments; consumers' purchase prices for flutes; and an updated repertoire catalog, index, and appendices.
