What reading level is The Orchestra volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Of the only remaining stringed instrument of any importance — the Pianoforte — we do not propose to speak here, because it is hardly ever treated as a part of the orches- tral forces. We shall deal with its combination with the orchestra in concertos, &c, in a later part of this work, and we have already, in an earlier volume of this series {Applied Forms, Chap. II. ), entered in some detail into the proper manner of writing for it.

CHAPTER VI.
WIND INSTRUMENTS :
...THE FLUTES.
191. Of all existing wind instruments, the Flute {Fr. Flute, Ital. Flauto, Ger. Flote) is one of the oldest. Two varieties were formerly in use, the ' Flute-a-bec ' and the ' Flute Traversiere, ' or ' Flauto Traverso. ' The former, the name of which means the 'Beak-Flute, ' was so called because it was blown at the end through a mouthpiece. It was the predecessor of "the modern flageolet, and is frequently to be found in the scores of Bach, and exceptionally also in those of Handel.
