THE FLUTE OF OZ. Online course for flutists by Onorio Zaralli.

38 lessons, practical exersises, tips, video lessons, quizzes, certificate of completion.

This course is the result of over 40 years of research. A thorough and meticulous study that begins with a knowledge of physiology (and its operation): this is where any conversation about the flute begins. As we will see in this course, the sound does not come from the flute, but is largely determined by our body.
From physiology, we move on to instrumental technique in order to understand the “how” and “why” of a certain articulation, different types of staccato, vibrato, legato, etc.
For each aspect considered, an exercise is proposed: only this way a “specific” work plan can be completed.
Among the various lessons, you will be offered to watch several videos – in double version in Italian and English – for an even more direct and effective examples.

A TALE OF MUSIC. Online course for musicians and music lovers by Onorio Zaralli

48 lessons, quizzes, videos, audios, pictures, stories and facts, mysteries and a Personal Certificate of Completition!

This course is intended to be an introduction to the study of music history through an encounter with the main characters, works and musical styles of the Western tradition.
