"The solos in this folio are designed to provide the intermediate level flute student with challenges in all areas of the playing technique, key signatures and complex rhythms, and in developing the technique of solo performance. In an effort to expose the intermediate level student to a cross section of musical styles, arrangements of music from the various stylistic periods have been included. In transcribing the various selections to accommodate the flute, it has been necessary to make alterations to the original form of some of the pieces such as in key or range. This has permitted the use of a wider selection of music from the various historical and stylistic periods. It is hoped that this will help the intermediate level students to develop a greater understanding and appreciation for these musical styles and will encourage them to explore these styles further as their technique develops."--Provided by publisher.

For the first time the exercises and teaching methods of world-renowned flutist William Bennett are featured in one workbook. After more than a decade of study with Bennett and many of his students, Roderick Seed has documented the tools that have made Bennett known for his ability to give the flute the depth, dignity, and grandeur of the voice or the stringed instrument. Topics range from how to overcome basic technical difficulties, such as pitch control, to the tools for phrasing, prosody, tone, and intonation needed for playing with different dynamics and ranges of expression. Advanced musicians will find useful exercises and techniques in this book that will deepen their knowledge and enjoyment of making music and help them in their quest to master the flute.
