Music master to Frederick the Great, Quantz was one of the great
flute virtuosos of all time. He was also a thorough musician, a
fine teacher and an excellent writer. This classic book is
ostensibly a flute method, but it goes far beyond that, presenting
a complete and detailed picture of musical taste and performance
practice in the 18th century. Of special significance is a table
relating various tempos to the speed of the pulse, helping modern
musicians to solve the difficult question of authentic performance
tempos of Baroque music. This reissued edition includes all
Quantz's music examples together with an introduction and
explanatory notes by the translator, Edward R. Reilly.
