Tom Moore
with Tracy Richardson
Duke’s new music librarian will talk about and demonstrate the early flute. DUMIC has about 200 flutes in its collections. Dr. Moore will be demonstrating on two flutes from DUMIC’s Eddy Collection: a flute made in Boston in 1906 by William S. Haynes and a flute made in London by C. Gerock from the first half of the 19th century.
