Demanding etudes through the circle of fifths, lines, jumps, changing of registers and the upper range of the flute are asked and the practising player will be rewarded for his effort. What is good for violinsts, can be even better for fluteplayers.

Both collections of etudes (MB001 and MB003) are a valuable addition for professional and early professional flutists, but also for - they exist as well - virtuos amateurs. Highly recommeded!

The music is fun to play and full of little technical challenges. Learning these would be a great summer project for advanced players looking for something a bit different.

A three parts emotional piece in a tonal tone language. After a calm part in the beginning, the rhythmical pulsating middle part increases to a virtuose climax, before the music - after the recurring calm of the bginning - dies away into nothing. Contemporary techniques are not asked.
The edition includes score and parts for flute and harp separately.
