I didn't know which method book to buy so I bought 6 different method books. This one is without doubt the best one. It is neatly presented and the CD is great. This method is just pure fun.

Scott makes playing the flute a treat with this instructional book on flute playing. It had been about twelve years since I'd picked up my dusty, tarnished flute, and I admit that I had forgotten everything I learned. After the first few lessons, I was hooked again! My husband was shocked that I could remember so quickly, but it's not me, it's the book!

The book goes through the necessary steps including how to make a sound (which is easier said than done), fingering, charts, and the language of music. It is simple, fun and you'll be anything but frustrated! It may be a bit juvenile (come on, the first songs you learn are "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and so on) but it is still a very worthwhile investment. If you're serious about learning to play the flute, this is the beginner's book of choice!

Since I am no longer young, learning to play the flute has presented me with a considerable challenge. This book has simplified technical aspects that caused me the most difficulty. Having a cd with the exercises means even a novice like me can replicate the exercises in tune and at the correct tempo. The book starts off very basic, but quickly provides recognizable tunes even beginners can play. It makes the whole learning process so much more fun!

This is a great book! i got this and Essential Elements for flute at the same time and this one is the best out of both of them. Teaches you the basic stuff like Embochure,breathing, and music theory.
