I often,when commenting on CBB , refer to Anthony Baines "Woodwind Instruments and Their History". I've used this very informative book so much it's falling apart on me. The first edition was published in 1957 so now it is rather dated as to the references of famous professional woodwind players and information concerning the more modern developments in woodwind design ect.
The copy I have is the 3rd Edition 1991 (apparently not updated from the 1957 edition) and is a paper back of the very handy size of 13x21cm. He has also written a book covering in similar fashion "Brass Instruments and Their History"
I have never seen any other book that covers the history and development of woodwind instruments and the evolution of their mechanism ect in such detail as Baines book does.
Surely however , there must be other books that cover this type of information, especially with more updated details concerning various designs and accessories for the modern Flute/Oboe/Clarinet (Saxophone) & Bassoon player.
Does anyone know of such a book or books ?
