Playing Woodwind Instruments: A Guide for Teachers, Performers, and Composers

Summary: Great Woodwind Omnibus
Review: Well done how to for all the woodwinds. Very good section on flute embouchures and clarinet/oboe reed making, or at least a reasonable starting point. Good references for further study of not only playing the woodwind family but reedmaking, and history as well. Great to have this information all in one place. This would be an excellent starting point for someone who already plays one woodwind and wants to expand their "doubling" ability. It would also be an excellent book to accompany a standard method for a first time player of any of these instruments. Hats off to Mr Rehfeldt, good job.
