About the Flute


One of the first flutes appeared in Greece and Etruria as early as 2nd century BC! Originally made of wood, the flute is now made from silver or gold and is about 2 feet in length. Today, the flute is a part of the highest-pitch woodwind section of the modern orchestra and is one of the solo instruments most utilized by composers. Famous flutists include Sir James Galway, Jeanne Baxtresser, and Alexa Still. Others, like Robert Langevin of the New York Philharmonic, are orchestral players. The Latin heritage of Viviana Guzman and Nestor Torres come through in the jazz style. Did you know that George Washington, James Madison, and Leonardo da Vinci all played the flute? Rock bands also have flutists such as Tim Weisberg or Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull fame.
