Flute Lessons in Livermore, CO

Instruments: Flute Piccolo

As for beginners, I would recommend Hal Leonard’s Essential Elements-Flute, Book 1. For more experienced players, I would recommend De la Sonorité and 24 Progressive Studies for Flute, along with the Trevor Wye Practice Books. More specifically, we would focus on the Tone, Technique, and Breathing and Scales books. As the student moves forward, we can have a more detailed discussion about solo works. I would also recommend for older, dedicated players to possibly look into playing orchestral excerpts. Read More
