'In our flute tutor we have tried to allocate the musical and technical content in such a way as to make the path of development smooth and obstacle-free for beginners. This is a Hungarian tutor that we are publishing. Our aim is that the beginner should first play on his instrument in his musical native language, that of Hungarian folk music. For this reason the majority of the exercises are folk melodies or compositions created in the spirit of folk song. In addition to Hungarian folk music, the volume also contains folk music from other countries, and classical music. Of etudes in the traditional sense of the word we have included only as much as was absolutelyessential...' (Zoltán Jeney) In der vorliegenden Flötenschule waren wir bestrebt, durch gestuftes Aufschlichten des musikalischen und technischen Lehrstoffes den Entwicklungsweg für den Anfänger möglichst leicht und reibungslos zu gestalten. Unsere Absicht war eine moderne, den heutigen Erfordernissen entsprechende Flötenschule zusammenzustellen. Eben deshalb sind die Übungen größtenteils Volksliedbearbeitungen oder Kompositionen, die im Geiste der Volksmusik geschaffen wurden. Neben den Volksliedern ist aber auch der klassischen Musik entsprechender Raum gelassen worden. Etüden in altem Sinne des Wortes bringen wir nur in unbedingt notwendigem Ausmaße. Die Übungen sind in ihrer überwiegenden Mehrzahllebendige Musik, musikalisch anspruchsvolle, sorgfältig geformte Werke, deren Verfasser zu den besten ungarischen Komponisten zählen.

François Devienne (1759 - 1803) was a French flutist and composer, as well as a founding professor at the Paris Conservatory, which was established in 1795. During his lifetime, Devienne composed over 300 works, most of which were scored for Wind Instruments.
Devienne belonged to a line of French flutists and composers who, over a period of a century, had adopted a German transverse Flute and made it a quintessentially French musical instrument. He followed the path of predecessors such as Michel de la Barre and Michel Blavet in establishing a French school of Flute playing and composition.
Devienne wrotehundreds of works for the Flute, as well as a renowned tuition manual. His 7th Concerto is thought by many to be the best of the dozen or more concertos that he composed during his lifetime. This concerto was composed in or around 1787, shortly before the French revolution. As in Mozart's later works, the passions of the time can be clearly heard - particularly in the vigorous opening theme in E minor. In contrast to the stately Allegro, the theme is gentle and lyrical, yet intriguing, with the Flute almost mimicking bird call.
