Disappointing
The songs are great a fun to play, but some of the melodies are not accurate. I realize that it is hard to convert voice to instrument. The book does not include the guitar solos or chords, which limits its usefulness.

Making Flute Fun
Our purchase of Best of the Beatles for Flute has brought our daughters interest back! Young musicians want to play music that interests them and we succeeded with this one.

One of The Best Books
This book provides endless songs for you to play or practice. There is always somthing new for you to explore, and the melodies are exquisit. It is a must-have for Beatles fans aspiring in flute.

I Love The Book!
I love The Beatles and was excited to see a flute version for their songs. This book is well worth every penny. Something to keep in mind is that when you play the songs some of them cannot be played by ear, you must first read the music and play it how it is written, then the melody will come to you. If anyone says they can't find the melody, it's because they are doing something wrong as far as interpreting their music. The book has quite a collection of songs and I play from it almost every chance I get...Now if only someone would make flute books available for Aerosmith songs, huh?

IT IS NOT MY FAVORITE
My flute teacher has this book and she gave all of the music that was in the book. It is SO EASY and some of the songs hardley contain the melody. I was not impressed.

SO EXCELLENT!!!! A+++++
I have accumulated over 100 books over the years but I must say that this book is one of my all time favorites. When I first got this book I was so ready to start playing! I practiced for hours and hours after i got it, I just couldnt wait to start playing. This book is wonderful for every Beatles fan out there, or just for any music lover looking to have a good time and "get lost in their music" I would rate it as intermediate/ advanced becuuse there are many accidentals, difficult time sig.'s and VERY high notes! It is so worth every penny and all of your time well spent. I guarantee that as soon as you get it you will sat the same!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect Harmony!
I am pianist and when I set my eyes on this book I sat down at the piano in the shop and started playing. After about 5 minutes I had attracted a huge crowd and earned a few pounds (I wasn't fishing for money!). I encourage you to take up this book it is brilliant! Also any beginners that are new to the piano please ask your teacher to teach you a few of these songs.

student practices for hours w/o threats!
I bought this for my middle school daughter and it was one of the best buys of sheet music ever! There are so many songs in it that she likes and WANTS to play that she has spent countless hours practicing. She has even had other friends REQUEST lending the book to them. One thing that is very encouraging for a young student is that the book contains some very simple songs up to an intermediate level. I recently had to buy (it was requested) a copy for clarinet for her younger sister and the two of them sometimes practice together. I believe it was money very well spent.
