The First Book of Flute Solos (Complete) is a collection of pieces arranged and edited by Christopher Gunning and Judith Pearce that introduces players at beginner level to an unusually wide range of music. All 27 pieces have been chosen to encourage attention to the basic technical aspects of flute playing, and have been arranged in approximate order of difficulty, with special attention paid to good sound production. It is hoped that the pieces will also prove to be a pleasure to play, encouraging the young flautist to develop their own naturally expressive style alongside good technique.
