by Christina Andrews
Foundations of Flute Technique by Christina Andrews is an excellent technical studies book for the third and fourth year flute student. The book includes major and minor scales and arpeggio exercises as well as carefully edited etudes by Anderson, Koehler, Gariboldi, Bach, Boehm and others. Articulations have been simplified, and etudes shortened and transposed to accommodate younger students. Etudes have been selected for their melodic beauty, as well as their usefulness in developing technique. Foundations provides a great introduction to traditional flute technique while providing a format that will give younger students a strong sense of achievement as they strive for better technical facility. 75 pages.
