Author's Notes

Illustrated Fluteplaying, now in a third revised edition, is a true classic.... Throughout Illustrated Fluteplaying, hundreds of sensitively drawn and anatomically accurate pictures explain the details of flute playing in a way that makes it come alive.  This is combined with a marvellous sense of fun, making Illustrated Fluteplaying a magical book.  Illustrated Fluteplaying is a must for practising flute players, students, teachers and those who are teaching themselves.  It has also proved a boon to general woodwind teachers who are not experts on the flute. It features:

• A superbly illustrated discussion of the basics of fluteplaying bringing the subject immediately to life.
• Detailed descriptions and pictures of breathing, tonguing, vibrato, tuning and advanced techniques giving a new sense of clarity to the most difficult topics.
• A picture for every point to be taught or remembered.
• A comprehensive index, making it an ideal reference book.
