Vester's famous collection of studies is an ideal introduction to the stylistic aspects of music from the 17th - 19th c. An attempt has been made to compile as varied a selection as possible, including such different types of study as melodic, stylistic, technical and virtuoso, spanning the two centuries. Selected from the works of famous flautists such as Fürstenau, Böhm and Köhler, Vester's compilation is quite unique and standard repertoire for flutists.
