Flute Soufflé is an album by jazz flautists Herbie Mann and Bobby Jaspar featuring tracks recorded in 1957 for the Prestige label.[1]

Reception

Allmusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated: "Herbie Mann was a flutist who occasionally played tenor and Bobby Jaspar a tenor-saxophonist who doubled on flute. They play their normal instruments on the first song. The second song finds them switching back and forth, while the other two are strictly flute features... Several times the two lead voices interact and trade off during this enjoyable performance".[2]
