| Abstract | "In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, the flute was the most played wind instrument by amateurs and virtuosos. Thanks to the flute's popularity, countless instruments, flute compositions, and flute methods were produced, of which many are still preserved today. The flute itself has undergone a great evolution; flute players and makers adapted it to the steadily changing prevailing musical taste. With the instrument, its performance practice changed as well. Musical rules were established and adapted, some of them visible in the scores, others applied by the musicians. These changes are reflected in the ca. 150 flute methods published between 1760 and 1850. In this book, author Anne Pustlauk sheds light on the complex world of the flute and its performance practice in the classical and early romantic period. She provides the reader with all information needed to perform the repertoire of that time in a historically informed and inspired way"-- Provided by publisher. |
