A carefully graded selection of tuneful pieces for flute and piano including well-crafted arrangements providing practice of the keys, note-ranges and fingering patterns encountered in the early grades. Each volume features a wide range of material, from Purcell to Puccini and from Schubert to Stravinsky.
