Frederick the Great (1712-1786) not merely maintained at his court a musical | establishment, as did other princes of ; Central Europe in his day, but himself | practised diligently upon the flute and composed lavishly for it. One of Frederick’s musicians is said to have remarked, "If you are under the impression that the King loves music you are wrong; he only loves the flute-and, more than that, the only flute he loves is his own."
