word flute in the Engish language was in Geoffrey
Chaucer's "The Hous of Fame", ca. 1384.
Aside from the voice, archeology tells us that the
flute is the earliest musical instrument. A number of
such instruments have found in the Swabian Alb region
of Germany, some dating as far back as 35,000 - 43,000
years ago.
