Joachim Andersen (1847–1909) was a Danish flutist, composer, conductor, and pedagogue whose works played a defining role in the development of modern flute technique. His 26 Little Caprices (26 Kleine Capricen), Op. 37, first published in 1890, comprise a collection of short, progressively challenging studies that develop technical fluency, articulation, finger dexterity, and musical expression while exploring a variety of keys and musical characters. This edition includes a comprehensive style guide by the editor, featuring practical commentary and interpretive guidance for each of the twenty-six caprices.
