The Flute Book is a one-stop guide to the flute, its performance, and its repertoire. Written by flutist and noted flute historian Nancy Toff, the book offers detailed information on choosing and caring for a flute, all aspects of performance, and the history of the flute and its literature. This second edition includes a completely revised and updated repertoire catalog of both solo and chamber works, as well as an extensive bibliography and appendices listing flute manufacturers, repair shops, sources for flute music and books, and flute clubs and related organizations worldwide.
