Over seventy original progressive studies in a variety of jazz styles, by James Rae. A systematic, methodical approach that helps you to play stylish Jazz right from the beginning.

The book is divided into three sections:

• Part Two contains twenty carefully graded melodic jazz studies to assist in the formulation of physical techniques and skills.
• Part Three Improvisation and Blues encourages the budding Jazz flautist to use these studies as the basis for further creative jazz improvisation.
