Sofie’s life is not an easy one. All her family are talented flautists, but as the youngest member she only ever gets to play the mini-flute. Yet in truth Sofie is more talented than the lot of them. Even as a baby she could play five notes on her mother’s flute. By the age of three she could play the traditional German folk song Cuckoo, Cuckoo flawlessly, and at four she was able to play a flute sonata by ear. A child prodigy, they called her, but still no one would give her a bigger flute. Then one day when she’s on holiday at her aunt Gertrude’s in the mountains, Sofie discovers the biggest flute of all. And Alois can coax the most wonderful sounds from it! The story of how Sophie manages to talk Alois into teaching her to play the alphorn is as surprising and fascinating as it is funny.
