Sound Quality, Technique & Joy of Playing from the Start This collection is a true treasure for young flutists on their journey to great virtuosity: With 100 short, carefully selected exercises, the book offers a solid and versatile foundation for daily lessons – whether in individual or group settings. Familiar themes, melodies, dances and clever canons provide variety and motivation. The range remains beginner-friendly (mostly D1 to E3), and the musical material covers numerous major and minor keys. At its core are four pillars of successful flute playing: good posture, natural breathing, a balanced tone in all registers, and targeted technique training. Particularly ingenious: The “Speed it up!” exercises promote finger technique and a sense of pace in a playful way. The sheet music is complemented by a practical accompanying booklet with 25 pieces that can be accompanied by guitar or piano using chord symbols. A high-quality insert with daily exercises completes the set.

About this edition The difficulty level of this simplified piano accompaniment is very high. The piano part by the composing pianist Clara Schumann is highly complex, and the possibilities for reduction are limited. Philip Lehmann achieves, with this arrangement, the possibility of an accompaniment even without prior piano study.In the third movement, the present notation format has been chosen to provide as manageable options as possible, depending on the performer‘s abilities: accompaniment with just the bass note, chordally on the downbeat, or with tremolo in the specified rhythm. To preserve this rhythmic specific feature (quintuplets, sixteenth-note rests) of the accompaniment in the right hand, the rhythmic structure is notated from the first measure. Despite this, the greatest simplifications should still be quickly recognizable. Level of difficulty 4 : Compared to the original, the piano movement has been greatly simplified, but can still be practised by amateurs The edition is also available as a pdf file.
