17 Daily Exercises

Taffanel Gaubert’s 17 DAILY EXERCISES has long been the standard source for daily flute warm-ups and general practice. Flute virtuoso Jasmine Choi provides a must-have expanded edition presenting the complete and authentic original “TG” enhanced by additional exercises and suggestions for further facility and elegance, along with extra workouts for the expanded low and high ranges.
