The method is constructed cleanly enough - and with enough intelligent explanation - that it's moved beyond just a teaching method; any self-motivated player will be able to use and learn from this book. Essentially, Greg has elevated flute beatboxing to a versatile, fully-developed contemporary technique, making it easy and fun to learn while being even more thorough than one could hope. An impressive book.

Anyone can learn to beatbox on their flute, and Greg Pattillo's Beatbox Method was conceived to be a guide on that journey. It is not enough to just learn some sounds and how to do them on the flute; one needs etudes to practice, works that can serve as building blocks as one's skills develop, and bits and pieces that, once learned, can be combined together to make great music.

This book covers five elements: learning basic beatbox sounds, combining them with the flute, using combinations of beatbox sounds to create patterns to play over, building beatbox patterns to fit melodies, and creating melodies or phrases to play over existing beatbox beats.

It is Greg's hope that you use this book as a springboard into daily musical creativity and exploration. This, in part, is why he emphasis 'vamps'; instead of learning only what's written, the idea is to take the elemental structure and apply it to your own musical ideas. By exploring basic rhythmic concepts we become better musicians on and off the page. By understanding how the different beatbox sounds serve basic roles in a measure, building complexity through repeats, as well as making up our own fills at the end of phrases, we can experience improvisation as a step-by-step process. Furthermore, by conceptualizing how to make these beatbox sounds, we learn quite a bit about how our air, throat, and mouth are used in tandem to play the flute.

While preparing this piece, the flutist will need to learn how tomake a collection of beatboxing sounds independent of the flute. Atfirst, these sounds should be practiced without the flute in order toachieve consistency in sound, volume and control. Gradually, theperformer will need to learn to make many of these sounds at the sametime as playing the flute. Keep in mind that many of the beatbox soundsare frequently paired together, and practicing these pairings will alsohelp in preparation of this piece.

Mr. PATTILLO: Actually, a lot of the techniques that you use to play the flute are kind of used to beatbox. You know, we use our tongue to kind of clarify the notes that we play on the flute. We kind of tuck-a, tuck-a, tuck-a, tuck-a on the flute. And if you pronounce these, if you over pronounce them, you can actually get some beatbox rhythms. Now, for those of you that don't know, beatboxing, I think you can safely define it as making beats with your voice and your mouth.

Mr. PATTILLO: I hope for it. Actually, what I'm trying to do is I'm using my classical background and my education to kind of get composers into this sound to write for this. And if I can give or rather, if we can get some sort of backbone with tunes - with (unintelligible) with the sound, I think it can be a little more than flavor of the month. I'm actually - I have a beatbox flute concerto being written for me by Randy Wolf(ph) that'll premier next May - May 2010. So already, I'm throwing that into the, you know, the classical music spectrum and, well, hopefully other composers can get their ears around these sounds and learn to write for this sound. There's no reason to keep it from the concert halls.

AW: Yes! I am working on a project called Beat Tape for beatbox flute and guitar. I am excited to see how it turns out because there has not been any music written for beatbox flute and guitar yet! I plan to release it at the end of this year. In the meantime, I plan to also focus on improving the flute and composition skills. be457b7860
