So sorry; many of these webpages were created before youtube was invented. Hard to believe, but most, below, are from 2007 and many have moved or are no longer online.(2019)

Sorry these links may be out of date as they are from 2007.

Searching lists of Flute Players:

To find the home pages of many professional flutists google the name of the flutist to find their sound samples.


Feel like playing along?

Remember too that besides regular listening CDs, additionally, some great flutists such as Paula Robison, Robert Stallman, Julius Baker, Jeffrey Zook etc. also have CD-playalong repertoire books in "Music Minus One" catalogues, and also listed for sale in at Fluteworld U.S.), Topwind and Justflutes (U.K.)

Look for CD-accompaniment flute music albums.
