Must have for the aspiring flute artist

This is what it is. Thirty six wonderful classics for the flute with piano accompaniment. There is something that should appeal to everyone. A must for the flutist's or teacher's library. A flutist must learn to perform and here is a great place to start. Selected musical pieces range from easy to mildly difficult. The piano parts are not for the 1st or 2nd year student though.

So far so good

I have been using this book for about 2-3 weeks in my private lesson studies at VanderCook College of Music, while studying to be a music educator. I have played only 2 selections from the book prior to buying it. I'm using this to expand my repertoire and work on various techniques that each piece demands. I think it is great for repertoire, working with accompanament (since it comes with the piano book), and just expanding horizons on what you would like to play and what you can play. I highly reccommend it for anyone looking for some new music. As far as playing ability I suggest the flutist already be comfortable with fingerings into the third octave, be able to read fairly fluently, be able to articulate notes (this will help practicing/learning more articulation types as the pieces demand, always better with a private teacher), and be able to consciously count during each piece. But then again these are things I hope for in every intermediate-advanced musician. Great pieces!

Solos for Flute: 36 Repertoire Pieces with Piano Accompaniment

My 12 year old daughter is in her 2nd year (7th grade) of flute playing -- she is in the school band but does take private lessons from a classical music flute artist, once a week. My daughter is really enjoying this book. However, she could NOT work with these pieces of music with out her private teacher. I recommend this book for students who study privately aside from the school band.
