20 Fun Facts About the Flute
The earliest usage of the word “flute” was found in Geoffrey Chaucer’s The House of Fame (c. 1380). A flute-playing musician is called a flute player, a flutist, a flautist, a fluter, or a flutenist. The flute was one of the first musical instruments ever invented and has been used for thousands of years. Musical Bri, Jan 23, 2016.
