Complete Irish Flute Book
by Mizzy McCaskill & Dona Gilliam

While the wooden simple-system flute is traditionally used in playing Irish music, a growing number of folk players have adopted the silver flute as a viable alternative. Here for the first time, The Complete Irish Flute Book presents the silver or Boehm flutist with a method for learning authentic Irish ornamentation on the instrument they already play! This thorough guides provides fingering charts, exercises, and technical essays on how to do ornamentation Irish style. Featuring hornpipes, reels, jigs, set dances, and slow airs and songs this book focuses not only on musical accuracy but stylistic authenticity as well.
Contents:
This comprehensive method includes: extensive historical notes, a comparison of hand and finger positions for wooden and silver flutes, embouchure and breath support in the folk and classical traditions, plus an introduction to dance music, performance practice, and ornamentation used by traditional players. These include slides, cuts or tips (single grace notes from above or below respectively), double and triple grace notes, and short and long rolls. The material is sequentially presented along with alternate fingering charts to facilitate correct performance practice. Includes unornamented "standard" tunes side-by-side with ornamented variants
Although a majority of the tunes in this book can be played by Irish simple-system flutists, players of keyless or multiple-keyed wooden flutes will find a more compatible approach for learning to play in the Irish style in the Complete Irish Tin Whistle Book. Why? Whistle fingerings closely parallel fingerings for simple-system flutes. Also, the selection of repertoire in the whistle book is confined to the keys of D, G and A- all traditional keys for traditional flute players.
