The Romantic Flute (not that one)
from The Inline G Flute Podcast · host Gareth Houston
It’s always felt like we flute players weren’t invited to the Romantic party. Whilst Beethoven, Wagner and Mahler were playing beer pong, we were at home tooting our own flutes. So this week, I look at why that is, along with the Jena German Romanticism movement, the response to The Enlightenment, and how the French screwed it all up.Grma xInline G Merch 😎www.Inlineg.myshopify.comInline G Patreon ⭐️www.patreon.com/TheInlineGFlutePodcastInline G will ALWAYS be free of charge, but signing up to the Patreon helps let this podcast reach new heights, if you can afford it.
