Overtones Flute Studies 5-8

Various

It is with great enthusiasm that The Royal Conservatory presents Overtones: A Comprehensive Flute Series. It is hoped that this groundbreaking series will address the need for a single collection of quality educational materials to foster musical development and instill appreciation of the richness and diversity of music written for flute. The series is built on the premise of nurturing well-rounded musicianship, giving teachers and students everything they would expect in a comprehensive pedagogical resource along with a chance to explore their potential, push their boundaries, and broaden their horizons. Each piece has been carefully selected to ensure an expansive representation of musical styles from all eras. Students will encounter standard repertoire from well-known composers as well as exciting contemporary works from North America and around the world.

The two volumes of "Flute Etudes" contain pieces that have been carefully selected to introduce an extensive range of styles and lay a solid foundation for the technique required in the corresponding level of repertoire. Emphasis has been placed on balancing traditional etudes with jazzy selections, imaginative character pieces, and innovative compositions that introduce extended techniques and graphic notation. Both old and new, most of the selected pieces were written by flutists, for flutists, including Karl Joachim Andersen. Louis Drouet, Ernesto Kohler, Heinrich Soussmann, Robert Winn, Wil Offermans, Mike Mower, Hilary Taggert, and Francois Veilhan.
