Ahh the recorder I remember attempting to learn that instrument in school, and being thoroughly bored with it after about a half dozen lessons.

English flute: A name used in the 18th century for the recorder to distinguish it from the transverse flute, (the ordinary orchestral flute) which was at that time called the German flute.
