I'm so excited with a new flute tutor and repertoire series that I just had to let everyone know about it.  No I didn't write it or know the author, and unfortuneatly I'm not on commission.  I just like it so much that I want every young flute beginner or flute teacher to know about it.   Up to now every beginners flute book which I've looked at goes through too quickly for most students.  It can sometimes take a long time to master even a few notes with a good tone.  Funky Flute book 1 starts with just 1 note in the flute melody (if you can call 1 note repeated a melody) but the chord changes on the backing tracks make the songs sound good.  This should give even the absolute beginner some confidence and sense of achievement. The CD also includes listening tests even in book 1.   This is a great flute series on so many levels.   I wish it had been around when I first started to learn to play flute. Lessons and practice would have been so much more fun!

Cherie Keyboard Teacher (Portsmouth)

About The Author

Patience and being understanding are probably my best qualities for being a teacher. That's not just what I think but a number of my pupils and pupils' parents have told me so. A sense of humour in the right situations can also be productive. Lots of people are good musicians but not all of them have the patience to teach people who struggle with the subject. I know from personal experience from when I was a child that the more someone shouts at a person who is trying hard but finding something difficult, the harder it becomes for that person to do well. That doesn't meant that I will be too soft with anyone messing about but am understanding towards those who are keen but not naturaly gifted in music.
