DESCRIPTION:
Excellent Methoda Blast From the Past After obtaining a 50s era flute at a silent auction and having it reconditioned, I looked for a flute method that I could use to teach myself to play. The Rubank Method popped up and I was immediately flooded with memories from my childhood in the 60s when my music teacher used this method to teach me the clarinet. I recalled it as an effective (and fun) method with some pretty interesting drills. I immediately ordered all the flute books in the series from beginner to advanced vol. 2. I had previously ordered two other flute method books and was disappointedtoo much history and music theory and no logical sequential. Relearning the Flute After taking about 20+ years off playing the flute I had forgotten all of the fingerings, notes, and how to read the music. This has been a great refresher and works you through each set of notes with plenty of practice snips to reinforce the skills being taught in each lesson. I would recommend this for all ages (I remember learning from these books when I was in elementary/middle school). As a parent I would assist my child in working through the books if you are doing them from home; at least until they get the hang of how to use them.Great product (for the entire series of books).. Amazing!! jdub57 Amazing!!! I bought this book for my twin 14 year old neices, this is the exact same book I had waaaay back when back when I started to play the flute. I have been playing for 50 years!!!
