Flute Music (Book 1) – Baroque

Flute Music (bk1)-Baroque
Edited by Peter-Lukas Graf and Ernst-Gunter Heinemann

Of all Baroque works for flute there are none so popular, or of such high quality, as those of Bach and Handel.  However, it should not be forgotten that in the same period many other composers throughout Europe were writing charming, if more modest, music for flute.  This edition is devoted to their works and deliberately disregards the major composers of the period, whose works are readily available in modern editions.
