This past Friday, one-half of the Atlanta-based hip-hop duo OutKast, Andre 3000, released a fully instrumental album that focuses on the flute. For his first release in almost two decades, the artist shocked many fans when he revealed that there would be no rapping, beats, etc. in the album — just flute.

After taking inspiration from Cupid Valentino himself, today’s Coffee Break will be focusing on songs that showcase some killer flute playing. From wooden traditional flutes to more modern digital instruments, let’s make a playlist of songs with some professional-level pied pipers.

For today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, which songs featuring the flute do you want to hear?
