Journey of the Transverse Flute by Suzanne Stumpf

Co-Artistic Director Suzanne Stumpf traces the evolution of the flute from the Baroque era as the first fully chromatic transverse flute, to the development of multi-keyed Classical and Romantic flutes, to Boehm's modern flute. As she discusses and performs on seven different instruments, listeners will learn about the cultural and technological influences that guided changes to the flute and experience the charm of each instrument.
