To-day the Flute is most often made of silver or even gold, but is used in various forms in every primitive tribe world-wide, and examples from as long ago as 200 B.C. have been found in Egypt. By the time J.S. Bach travelled to Dresden to hear the King of Poland's orchestra in 1717 the 'transverse' flute was already being developed, with most made of box wood, and with a single D# key. Buffardin and Quantz were two of the principal flautists using this 'new' flute. By 1768 further keys had been added, and the player Tacet wrote Sonatas for this instrument, performing with J.C. Bach in London. |
