The flute, part of the woodwind family, is one of the earliest musical instruments in recorded history. The flute we are most familiar with today is the transverse flute, which is held sideways, is made of metal, and has a range of about three octaves. With it's distinctive warm tone, the flute has found it's way into many different types of music including classical, pop, and jazz.

Everyone is different

Over the years we've learned that students often take lessons for different reasons. Some students have never even held a flute before, while others have been playing for a long time and just want a refresher. For this reason, Encore Music Lessons does not ask students to commit to taking a certain amount of lessons. There are no term contracts or semester systems, and students can stop or start lessons as necessary.

If you're serious about taking flute lessons, coming to this website was a good start. The flute is a fascinating instrument with a sound like no other, but it's important to have a good teacher to guide you along the way as you learn.

Where can I take flute lessons?

Flute lessons can be taken in the privacy of your home or at a teacher's studio nearby - it's up to you.

Depending on your level of ability, your teacher can cover topics such as producing a good tone, using proper fingerings, playing major and minor scales in 12 keys, reading music, and playing musical pieces. The teachers you'll find at Encore Music Lessons can also help you learn about more advanced subjects like the chromatic scale, playing overtones, music theory, and improvisation.

Regardless of what stage you're at in your playing, Encore Music Lessons can help match you with a flute teacher that's just right. Call us at 212-537-6746 or 800-417-4620 to find out how to get started today!

Student Reviews

Wicked Awesome!

Chris is a really patient and great teacher, each week we would go over a few exercises during my hour long lesson and he would leave me with an assignment to work on. Because of him able to explain things and make sure you understand them it really motivated me to practice on my own and prepared me for the next lesson where we were able to move on and learn something new! :)
