beginning method / reading Oosthuizen, Amanda. A complete method, designed for the very young beginner, this book has attractive illustrations, helpful hints, quiz pages and many duets (with the teacher playing a very complex flute accompaniment). The book is also designed for use in flute group classes and has group class games and activities. The book has built in report card/progress pages with practice charts and stages such as "I can finger B-A and A-G and echo two note tunes." The beginning concepts such as quarter note and half-note and the notes C, B, A, G, and F take up a full half of the book, ensuring slow and steady progress for the very young. The second half of the book begins with the eighth note and the first accidental, B-flat and progresses to F#, E1, D1, and slurs. 5 1A to beginning of 1B Kevin Mayhew UK (MelBay), 1999. 3 bGV0c3BsYXlmbHV0ZV8xLmpwZw==
