Title
flutehistory.com: Welcome
Description
Welcome to flutehistory.com. The site provides some information about the history of the transverse flute and flute-playing in Western culture. I created it to serve as a companion to a book on that subject I wrote for Yale University Press (London, 2002).
flutehistory.com is a work in progress. In its present form the site is meant to provide some basic details about the flutes and playing styles of the past, and to help you find published resources to learn more. Eventually, more extensive sound and image resources are planned, as well as more informative text, mostly including material that has no place within the structure of my book.
I have tried to address the needs of various different groups of visitors. There's an introductory page for those of school age, and I hope the site will also help university students think of research topics. I welcome and will gratefully acknowledge all corrections, additions, rants, and praise.
