Abstract

The main system used in classical Western-based flute education is generally the French school. This is mainly due to the fact that France has become the cradle of music culture, music philosophy and music education. With the coming of the age of Enlightenment from the 18th century onwards, changing cultural understanding, social classes and politics in Europe led France to change. With the establishment of the conservatory at the beginning of the 19th century, Paris became one of the important art centers of Europe in terms of musical development. Because of these developments, artists and composers of that period began to develop their own traditional teachings and spread them to Europe. This trend, which started in France, has led to the creation of different schools in different countries. When it comes to flute education, the first two schools that come to mind are French and English schools. In fact, although these two schools seem to be very different in terms of definition, they do not separate from each other under strict rules. Although there was no exaggerated difference between the two schools in this period, the spirit of competition between the French and British nations was reflected in the music and led them to support their own styles with a biased, nationalist approach.
