Volume One
First published in 2006, Flute Sight-Reading 1 is intended for Beginner to 4. It has 195 original tunes on 76 pages.
Flute Sight-Reading 1 aims to establish good practice and provide an early introduction to the essential skill of sight-reading. Sight-reading in some form should become a regular part of a student’s routine each time they get out of the flute, and this book aims to establish the habit early in a student’s learning process.
There are 8 sections, which in a logical sequence gradually introduce new notes, rhythms, articulations, dynamics and Italian terms – much as you would find in a beginner’s flute method. The emphasis is on providing idiomatic tunes and structures rather than sterile sight-reading exercises. Each section contains several solo examples, beginning with only three notes, and concludes with duets and accompanied pieces, allowing the student to gain experience of sight-reading within the context of ensemble playing.
- An approach based on self-learning and recognition of rhythmic and melodic patterns.
- Original tunes, rather than abstract sight-reading exercises
- 195 carefully graduated pieces in a variety of musical styles
- Eight sections related to the technical development of the flautist, with tunes using three notes to tunes with a range of two octaves, from low
- E flat to high B flat
- Each section concludes with a set of duets and accompanied pieces for practice of ensemble sight-reading
- Tunes progress towards all key signatures up to two sharps and flats
- Preliminary towards grade 4
