Program Information

The flute is a very in-demand instrument, and we will offer you many new and exciting musical opportunities. Whether you are just starting or continuing your education, we would love to help you learn the flute from our certified educators. Our unique approach to musical education facilitates a fast and practical learning experience for students of all ages.

Each online flute lesson takes place between one teacher and one student for either 30, 45 or 60 minutes. While our flute sessions are all private, parents are more than welcome to attend their child’s lessons.

Goals

Our goal is to develop our students to their highest musical level through private lessons. Creating the correct foundation for technique and appropriate repertoire is the utmost important thing. Students will begin with the fundamentals, such as breath control, how to hold the flute, real tones production, finger placement, etc. Intermediate students learn how to play clear sound, articulation, and an overview of tunes, pieces and songs taught. Advanced and experienced students will develop proficiency in long tones, intervals, flute ornamentation and vibrato, along with learning significant repertoire. Our flute curriculum covers the following subjects:

• Note reading and recognition
• Counting, rhythm reading
• Technique (scales, arpeggios, trills, dynamics)
• Sight reading
• Rudiments of Theory
• Memorization
• Ear training

Repertoire

Selecting repertoire is one of the most challenging and important tasks that we take on in the development of our students’ musical education. We work on the repertoire in these categories: etudes and studies, unaccompanied works, concertos, variations, etc., and short pieces. Students at all levels will be given a selection of repertoire from multiple eras of music to study and perfect.
