		<description><![CDATA[Fipple Flute Frenzy
Diridi, diridi,
Georg Philipp Telemann,
Fond of the outer ex-
tremes of the flute,
Scribbled his passagework
Unsympathetically:
That it is awkward is
Not in dispute!
Double Dactyl for Flute sans Basse
Flattement battement,
Jacques-Martin Hotteterre,
Gave us the word on the
Flute that&#39;s transverse:
Trying to fathom it
Leads one to bleak despair:
Incomprehensible,
Everyone&#39;s curse!
