Your in-depth Flute Course

Dear flute players- The program is intended for a variety of levels. There are different chapters, so everyone can find the one that fits him best. You can decide on a single short video from different chapters, or you would like to deepen your understanding on a specific topic. We recommend to watch patiently, and practice with the new inputs, before moving on.

Chapter One | Sound

The air is our main tool when playing a wind instrument. This chapter will focus on the main components, or stops, on the way of the airway. The goal is to control each one of them separately, and later finding the correct balance between them.

Chapter Five | Flute Literature

The flute repertoire consists mainly of single pieces. Only a few composers wrote a body of work that we can relate to, mainly Bach and Mozart. Some of the single pieces we can relate to later. More importantly, while you go through that chapter, is to learn some principals that will serve you in different areas of the repertoire.

Chapter Six | Coda

Before I let you go to practice, let's talk about the elephant in the room- stress. You know the sentence” I play better at home”? Well- I wish you get to the point when you play better on stage, otherwise, better stay home :)
