The article focuses on the book of music "Six Lectures on the Recorder and Other Flutes in Relation to Literature," by Christopher Welch. Welch's book, to say it at once, is infinitely more than a mere monograph on the flute. It is the work of an astoundingly erudite scholar, who incidentally throws perhaps more light on various aspects of musical life in Old England than any other writer has done. The recorder only survives in the now almost obsolete flageolet and in the so called penny-whistle.
