Modern Guide to Fingerings for the Flute

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2011

Verified Purchase

The first thing you need to know about this fingering guide is that it is for the open hole, or french style flute, with a B foot. This guide is not for closed hole flutes, or flutes with a C foot. Though some of the fingerings will work for the C foot and closed-hole student flute, the strength of this book is its comprehensive treatment of the professional, open-hole, B foot instrument. If you have such an instrument, I recommend this book for its detailed discussion of many alternative fingerings and its treatment of the microtonal and multiphonic resources of the instrument. If you have a closed-hole flute you will be disappointed.

I'm a self taught musician, this book has been a great help.

Excellent, easy to grasp and well laid out. I am a bit of a savant and can play more than a half dozen instruments but I also have learning disabilities that make it hard at times to understand the usual way lessons are taught. This book helped me greatly to improve my flute playing ability.

is that on the kindle the fingering charts are to small to see easily. But based on the content in this book ...

A thorough presentation of standard flute fingerings,tremelos,altered fingeringd as well as quarter tones and quarter tone trills. The problem, however, is that on the kindle the fingering charts are to small to see easily. But based on the content in this book I bought the full-size book and find that extremely useful.

Detailed!!!

Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

This book is confusing, but extremely detailed and thorough. If you need to know a fingering, trill, tremolo, or harmonic fingering...they are all there... But the actual fingering chart is confusing. Once you get used to the chart layout you will be fine, but if you are looking for something to show students, there are more clear fingering and trill charts out there. I wish the fingering chart looked more like every other one I've ever seen, but the information is amazing!

A Great resource for those who want to be great flutists

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2011

Verified Purchase

I think this essential to any serious, professional flutist. It's easy to understand, whenever you have a doubt of how to finger a certain note, how to perform a trill, or any such things, this is the great resource!
I'm a flute performance major, and this book has come in handy multiple times. Even for the long time professionals, this is a great resource.

Great reference, especially for the advanced player

Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2015

Verified Purchase

Well-organized with good visual representations of the fingerings. Provides alternate fingerings and trill work useful in jazz and "modern" playing practices. Not a book you "read", but certainly an authoritative and helpful reference for the advanced player.
