"Flute music…is at once the most universal and most particular of sounds. There is no culture that does not have its flute…Each has its specific fingering and compass. It weaves its own associations. Yet to hear any flute, it seems to me, to be drawn into the commonality of all mankind, to be moved by music closest in its phrases and sentences to the human voice."
- Vikram Seth in From Heaven Lake
