ANDERSEN - Etude op.21 n°4 (Schwedisches Volkslied) - Alexis Kossenko (LCDP #4)

Joachim ANDERSEN (1847-1909) Etude op.21 n° 4 (Schwedisches Volkslied) from 24 Studien op.21 (1881) Alexis KOSSENKO : flute Flute by Carl Gottlob Schuster Jr, Markneukirchen (ca.1890) (Meyer system, 13 keys, cocus wood) A = 438 © Les Concerts de Pan réalisation : Colin Laurent // www.colinlaurent.com ABOUT THE FLUTE Joachim Andersen never endorses the Boehm flute, but kept on playing the old system flute, for instance a "Meyer system" ; this system was by that time a standard in Germany, which had been designed by Heinrich Friedrich Meyer, a maker from Hannover. (*) This is the case of that flute, made by Carl Gottlob Schuster Jr in Markneukirchen. This place was an important center for manufacturing instrument, where this activity had reached an industrial level. This flute shows a rather massive conception, the key work is not particularly refined, but it is very reliable and the flute play very well. It is a typical instument from the end of the XIXth century, this one was made orbably around 1885. One might notice the square embouchure hole, which creates a broad and powerful sound. No man being a prophet in his country, Theobald Boehm did not manage easily to impose his new flute in German countries and Central Europe ; it is rather in France that his instruments were quickly dopted. In Germany, the old system continued to be played until very late, as the flautists were keen to use the great range of colors allowed by such instruments but considered betrayed by Boehm's inventions. That means that at the same time Parisian flautists would play a modern looking silver instrument with new key system while in Germany "flute" meant most of the time such an instrument, the so called "simple system" flute. (*) these flutes were so highly praised that numerous makers made similar models (usually of lower quality) stamped "nach Meyer" (after Meyer).
