Navigation etc.
Walsh announces that these sonatas are for German Flute, presumably to tap into the emerging market for this newly fashionable instrument, but a comparison with Valentine's sonatas Op 12 sonatas for transverse flute and his other sets for recorder make it clear that these were written for treble recorder.
