Final check
Product questions
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
Ask your director for the series and book number. This is Essential Elements, flute, book 2. Method series are not interchangeable mid-year.
Access comes with the book through Hal Leonard's online audio system using the code printed inside. A used copy may have that code already redeemed.
Yes, though it is written for a director-led classroom. The exercises assume an ensemble context and a teacher checking your tone and fingerings.
This is the flute edition. Piccolo players in school bands typically read the flute part rather than a separate book.
