Making Gourd Musical Instruments: Over 60 String, Wind & Percussion Instruments & How to Play Them by Ginger Summit (Author), Jim Widess (Author)
Book description
The authors introduce readers to make-it-yourself musical instruments. There is an amazing wealth of information here, covering not only how-to's and history but also extending into the social sciences and even science. We learn that pigeon flutes (crafted gourds attached to the birds' tails) were first mentioned about A.D. 1041 A.D. and that drummers are highly respected in India. Actual instructions on gourd transformations into spike fiddles, water drums, and even xylophones are included, along with a few photographs. But all the erudition tends to drown out the craft aspect, since instructions are sandwiched within the narrative text, and photographs are less than optimal. Nonetheless, a book that patient crafters will appreciate. Barbara Jacobs
Historically, ethnic groups in many countries have used a great number of musical instruments made from gourds. In North America these instruments are used mainly by percussionists. Most of the step-by-step projects in this book by gourd artists Summit and Widess (The Complete Book of Gourd Craft) are for percussion or stringed instruments such as the Latin American guiro (gourd scraper) or the spike fiddle. There are also a few from the wind family, such as the fipple flute. These are legitimate musical instruments made from traditional materials, and they are fully playable as well as being beautifully crafted. Highly recommended for general crafts as well as ethnomusicology collections.

Woodwind for schools by Peter Tomlin
Book description
Peter Tomlin gives a remarkably complete introduction to woodwind instrument making using very basic tools. After some introductory material he walks the student through making a Transverse Flute, a Clarinet, an Oboe and a Bassoon. New operations are described as they are needed and there are many clear dimensioned drawings. The text is terse and the reader is expected to think things through, but there are few gaps. An excellent little book (70 pages) and almost completely unknown outside the U.K. Someone should reprint it.
