It is thought that by determining the technical and musical achievements of the etudes, students' technical deficiencies or difficulties will be identified, and results will be achieved more efficiently and in a shorter time in flute education. There are a total of 20 etudes in the G.Gariboldi op.131 etude book. All the etudes were analyzed by qualitative research method and content analysis.
