Books for Flautists

The Flute Book (3rd Edn.) by Nancy Toff

A Complete Guide for Students and Performers.
Teachers and flautists at all levels have praised Nancy Toff's The Flute Book as a
unique one-stop guide to the flute and its music. Organized into four main parts - The
Instrument, Performance, The Music, and Repertoire Catalogue - the book begins
with a description of the instrument and its making, offers information on choosing
and caring for a flute, sketches a history of the flute, and discusses differences between members of the flute family. In the Performance section, readers learn about
breathing, tone, vibrato, articulation, technique, style, performing, and recording. In
the extensive analysis of flute literature that follows, Toff places individual pieces in
historical context. The book ends with a comprehensive catalogue of solo and chamber repertoire.
