A Handbook of Literature for the Flute

From the Publisher

Revised 3rd edition. An annotated list of solos, graded method materials, reference reading, flute ensembles, music for alto flute, piccolo and bass flute. Over 3,500 entries, representing more than 1,700 composers and authors. Used throughout the world by flutists, artists, teachers, libraries and music dealers.

A Handbook of Literature for the Flute is intended as a means by which teachers, students, performers and others with an interest in the flute can discern the nature of a particular composition. Also, the book is a reference which makes it possible to discover a work or works of a particular type from a survey of flute literature. What A Handbook is not is a mere list, however useful that might be.
