Productomschrijving

The second edition of Susan J. Maclagan’s A Dictionary for the Modern Flutist presents clear and concise definitions of more than 1,600 common flute-related terms that a player of the Boehm-system or Baroque flute may encounter. Fully illustrated with more than 100 images, the entries describe flute types, flute parts; playing techniques; acoustics; articulations; intonation; common ornaments; flute-making and repairs; flute history; flute music books, and many more topics. 

Unique to the second edition are entries on jazz and beatbox techniques, notation, and muscles of the face and throat. Entries now also feature bibliographic cross-references for further research. Carefully labeled illustrations for many flute types, parts, mechanisms, and accessories help make definitions easier to visualize. Appendixes provide further information on such subjects as flute classifications, types of flutes and their parts, key and tone hole names, head joint options, orchestra and opera audition excerpts, standard repertoire, an historical timeline and biographies of people mentioned in the definitions. Contributed articles include “Checking Your Flute Tuning and Scale” by Trevor Wye; “Flute Clutches” by David Shorey; “Caveats for Composers” by Helen Bledsoe; “How to Approach Baroque Music via the Modern Flute” by Barthold Kuijken; “Recordings” by Susan Nelson; and “Crowns and Crown Assemblies” and “The History of Flute Scales” by Gary Lewis. 

Maclagan’s A Dictionnary for the Modern Flutist, second edition is an essential reference volume for flutists of all levels and for libraries supporting student, professional, and amateur musicians.
