Reviewer Chris Hankin writes: “A Different Approach! This books covers all the basics of flute technique through a series of short exercises that can be linked together for a more challenging workout. Elisabeth Parry has researched her approach thoroughly, using it to outline how to best to work out a plan of action. The keys used are limited to four sharps or flats which means that it’s great for developing players who will benefit from the shorter format, adult returners who will appreciate less notes, and for anyone who could do with some fresh ideas. The accompaniments are of a high quality, as you would expect from John Alley, so you can even use it as a play-along. Now that really does make practice seem easier!”
