From the beginner’s piece to the big concert ballad, from the flute duet to the quartet for three flutes and piano – Manfred Schmitz plays with settings and technical demands in a virtuoso manner. Pop patterns supply the basis for these pieces, and the "flute and piano" combination runs through the first volume like a red thread.

Thanks to such beloved pieces as "The First Hit," "Siamese Duet" and "Velvet Paw Swing," many flute teachers and students will find stimulating material for the classroom or private lesson, as well as the right mix for formal or informal recitals.
