Known internationally for superior flute editions, including numerous transcriptions that have greatly expanded the repertoire, Robert Stallman now offers flutists an appealing collection of original melodic warm-ups in two parts. Part 1 "Twenty-Four Detache Warm-Ups" includes technical exercises from double tonguing to triple tonguing in all keys. Part 2 "Fifteen Legato Warm-Ups" includes exercises to open the tone in all registers, interval studies, and playing with expression. With The Flutist's Handbook, he shares his fresh approach to staying in shape and maintaining his reputation for "consummate virtuosity."
