The Leading Note Guide to RCM Graded Materials for Flute

In order to complete an RCM grade in flute, students should be prepared for the following components: Repertoire, Technique & Etudes, Ear-training, Sight Reading, and Orchestral Excerpts at grade 2 and higher. This guide will help you determine which books will be useful to complete your grade. Complete information about each grade can be found in the RCM Flute Syllabus (2010 Edition). Students and teachers are responsible for verifying all repertoire selections with the lists in the syllabus. The following is a guide only.

Beginning at Level 5, students must also complete the corresponding Theory and History Co-requisites (although RCM now provide theory books for all levels). Information about these separate requirements can be found in the RCM Theory Syllabus (2016 Edition).
