Renaissance Bass Transverse Flute by Martin Wenner Material:Plumwood light Castello boxwoodThe cylindrically bored Renaissance flute was employed both as an ensemble and a soloist instrument between the beginning of the 16th century and about 1680. The most common size was the tenor flute in D, with which experienced players could easily play a tonal range of three octaves. The original instruments tend not to be stamped and can be found particularly in collections in northern Italian museums such as the Bibliotheka della Accademia
