Basic Flute Repertoire

This is a list of standard works for flute and piano and flute alone. I give this list to my students at UConn to help them keep track of the major repertoire they've covered, and to insure that they study representative works from all style periods. It is not meant to be exhaustive, but rather a guide to the most standard literature. Feel free to print this page out and use it.
