This is an informative book about the flute, which includes chapters about the long and complicated history of the instrument, and also includes many chapters devoted to how to become a better flute player. It is filled with advice about caring for the instrument, good tone production, adjusting the pitch, articulation, how to practice, what to practice, playing Bach and the music of other Baroque composers, advice on some major solos, advice on playing in an orchestra, and much more. Not only is James Galway one of the greatest flautists of all time, he is also a witty and articulate writer. This is a book that entertains while it informs. It is for everyone who loves playing the flute, from beginners to advanced professional musicians. I liked this book so much that I have read it several times! Highly recommended
