Customer Reviews
You need this!
This is a wonderful tool for flutists! Very affordable and you can carry it around in your pocket! :)
A must for every flute student!
I love this collection of scales and etudes. It is particularly convenient having all the scales in one place. As we all move closer to having all our music on electronic devices this will be even better. Mr. Robinson has done a great job of making the individual scales easy to locate and use. I am personally referring to them at every practice session. The audio accompaniment helps as well. The price makes this collection very attractive!
Finally, a much needed flute book with audio!
