Hi, I was hoping you'd be able to answer my questions:

I am taking my Grade 6 Flute exam in a few weeks.
I wanted to know:
- When doing the scales, is it in even notes (not long tonic)?
- When you do slurred scales, when do you need to tongue - eg is it the first note of each octave, or not at all?

My flute teacher wasn't very sure when I asked her, cos she specialises in sax.

Many Thanks!

It's in even notes not long tonic as with Violin.

Slurred is all the way through without tonguing.

The flute scale requirements are exactly the same as sax.

The regulations are actually on the syllabus if you want to check further

Hope this helps

Hi, ah thanks for confirming
