Brief Introduction
Helping the Beginner Flutist to Pick Up the Flute with Confidence and Learn the Basics Needed to Get a Fast StartDescription
Are you or someone you love interested in learning to play the flute?
Whether you play other instruments, or have never played any instrument, this course is designed to help you get started playing the flute.
If you’re a band director, or instrumental music teacher and have a student who wants to add flute but you don’t know how to teach them, this course can help you give them a good foundation in flute instruction.
We’ll cover:
- The types of flutes and the sounds they make
- Choosing an instrument to purchase
- Caring for your flute
- Getting started making music
- Beginner songs by ear
- How to practice & progress
This course is taught through video lectures where I take you step by step through each topic. I will demonstrate techniques then ask you to try them. I will give pointers on what you’re hearing from your flute. We’ll even play duets where you play the melody and I play harmony.
You don’t need to read music to learn how to play flute in this course. I will teach you where to place your fingers to play notes. Then we will put notes together to play beginner songs by ear.
Come and join me. You'll love playing the flute!
