Flute Music by French Composers for Flute and Piano

I first received the book without the flute part and I requested a return. It was made so simple and easy and I got a free replacement with the flute part included! amazing

If you’re buying this for your child, I just have to say I’d give 10 stars if I could. Before my kiddo was assigned this music, I was stuck in “Flute Music Hell”, constantly listening to classics, such as “Baby Shark”, “Highway to Hell”, “Crazy Train”, and when friends came over (before lockdown) with their own instruments, “Down With the Sickness”. In all, this book has saved my sanity. And my hearing, because now I don’t have her running out of her room, yelling “HEY, MOM, I CAN MAKE YOUR EARS BLEED! LISTEN TO THIS (insert shrill note here)!”

This book is a must read for any advancing flutist. These highly demanding pieces require attention to counting, tone, articulations, phrasing, finger fluidity, etc. They each have slower, highly demanding tonal sections and faster, highly demanding technical sections and these often overlap. (I recommend listening to a recording to get an idea, though recordings are often played faster than the learning flutist will play it.) I learned these expressive pieces during high school through college and now, 10+ years later still love playing pieces from this book. If you are a flutist looking for music that will stretch you and enjoy French Classical composers (like Debussy, Gaubert, Faure, etc.), then I recommend this book. (Note: there are no Debussy pieces in this book.)As to print quality, the ink is bold, clear and a readable size. Piano score is readable (average fonts). I have not found any errors, just one note where the ink did not print fully (Andante Pastoral, page 38, measure 5).

The book is what I needed for school. This also came with the flute part separate from the piano accompaniment as well. Great deal.

I was not sure whether to purchase this product because I saw many reviews saying they did not receive a separate flute part. I was thrilled when my book arrived and had the piano score and separate flute only part!

I'm an intermediate flutist who is very serious, and these pieces are definitely challenging! I can't wait to get Faure's Fantasie up to speed! There are a lot of lesser known French composers in this book that are more than worth getting familiar with. There's no Debussy or Ravel, but you'll make a lot of new 'friends' along the way.Nicely printed, and even though I bought used, I received the Flute and the Piano parts. Score!

I recently purchased this book to learn some more challenging pieces and when I compared it to the S&E list of 2015 the majority of these pieces were on there as level 6's and I am so excited! I am doing Cantabile et Presto and I am in love with it! I recommend this book for people who want a real challenge that they can work on.

I am a flute major and constantly needing new pieces to learn. This book is great for the intermediate to advanced flutist. It came with the piano and flute music. I am very pleased!

Lovely book but flute part missing, only piano accompaniment

Good quality book, arrived on time and love the pieces! I’d say this book is Grade 8 and above standard in case anyone wasn’t sure.

Did not include the flute part. Would not recommend.

I bought for my daughter. She is using it for her daily practice. She likes it.

Fantastic book. Beats buying these pieces individually from the old French publishers
