Product Description

Product Description

Abracadabra Flute has become a classic in the market, and here is a brand new edition. The cover has been redesigned, the music re-set, and new illustrations commissioned. Some new material has been added, supplying extra help where new notes are introduced and reinforcement exercises for tricky corners. As well as the new edition, there is now a CD available. Performed by professional musicians, it demonstrates each piece on flute with piano accompaniments from our book Abracadabra Flute Piano Accompaniments, enabling the pupil to hear how the pieces sound. Such a CD is invaluable for ensemble experience, and offers all the fun of playing with an accompaniment - perfect for home practice and concerts alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars Abracadabra! It Worked!!!!!, 2 Nov 2003
By A Customer
I bought this book for my daughter a few weeks into her flute lessons. Being a begginer she was slightly unconfident. This book is just magical in its simplicity and after only a couple of months she is managing some lovely tunes. The book contains exercises that are good for begginers building confidence and more experienced players building precision. It manages to deliver rather difficult lessons into a student and tutor friendly manner.

5.0 out of 5 stars An ideal book from begginners onwards!, 3 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This music book is perfect for somebody just starting to learn flute. It includes many well known, catchy tunes which are easy to learn. Additionally, it includes instructions on how to play different notes. It progresses to fairly difficult tunes meaning that the book will last a long time and will never become boring. I have enjoyed practising from this book (and older editions) for several years, and would highly reccomend it for any new flautist!
