The traverse flute would have
appeared in China, then in West
in the Middle Ages (XIIth
century). The first descriptions
of the instrument date however
only of the XVIth century. In the
second half of the XVIIth
century, Jean-Baptiste Lully
introduces the traverse flute
into the orchestra of opera and
since the XVIIIth century, the
instrument sees assigning an
important function of soloist.

The first major
transformations
brought to the

family Hotteterre,
during the first half of
