Flute Technique

This is a book for both professional and amateur flute players. It contains instructions in sound production, breath control, intonation, tonguing, and dynamics; and it offers advice on phrasing, tone, vibrato, and orchestral playing. There are annotated fingering charts showing normal fingerings, and trill fingerings, and a concise account of the flute's history. There is also a useful repertory list, and an appendix by Sebastian Bell describing avant-garde techniques.
