A great book for students learning exam scales! It can be really difficult to learn and memorise scales and arpeggios on the flute. For one thing you can't watch your fingers as you play. For another, the notes go very high with lots of ledger lines to read. Students need all the help they can get, so this handy little book will be really useful. All of the music is written in large print with many hints and tips to guide the student. In addition, grade 1 scales and arpeggios have the note names written in - a great help for young students who are not yet completely fluent at music reading.

Contains all the technical requirements for ABRSM Grades 1-8 and provides notes on the forms of articulation required and lists recommended speeds.

Having to play scales and arpeggios from memory can be a scary experience, especially when you are being marked on them in an exam, so you need to make sure that you really know them well. The top notes need to be as secure and easy as the low notes and the finger patterns need to be completely known. So that's where this little book can help. It has lots of ideas for different ways in which you can approach your practice so that, by the time you have finished the book, you will be able to play your scales and arpeggios fluently and easily. The book is split into chapters, one for each scale and one for each arpeggio. The exercises in each chapter are all slightly different, so that you don't get bored. Even if you are already good at your scales you will improve in agility and confidence by practising the exercises. The book covers all of the requirements for both the ABRSM and Trinity College Grade 1 flute exams. Please consult the current examination syllabus to check the exact requirements.
