“A traditional approach.”

Chris Hankin Just Flutes staff member - [email protected]

Edward Blakeman has compiled two interesting collections of studies which tackle the cornerstones of flute technique in a structured manner. Working with his five areas of posture, breathing, embouchure, fingering and tonguing, the well-chosen works reflect these principles very well. Each section is progressive which is also really useful. These volumes are very traditional in outlook and none the worse for that!

From the Publisher

Melodic exercises, studies and duets from the 18th and 19th centuries are featured in this unique collection. Compiled and edited by Edward Blakeman, it includes works by Andersen, Camus, Hotteterre and Kohler.
