They are all different and I find it hard to tell what flute suits me best.

Taking drugs to overcome nerves is the thin edge of the wedge going in there.

Running through things because you are familiar with them, breeds routine and this is the seed of boredom.

It is normal to be nervous.

I think it is most important for a teacher to play the pieces and studies that are being played by the student.

I do not consider my self as having mastered the flute, but I get a real kick out of trying.

Yes indeed I have gained a lot out of playing scales and etudes.
