Rogier de Pijper Het derde register van de fluit zorgt vaak voor stress bij fluitisten die ik tegenkom. Het wordt soms geassocieerd met moeilijk, hard en lelijk.

by Stefan Keller Improvisation breaks through all language barriers and enables us to have a dialogue about our instrument, solo, in a duo, in a trio, etc.. This does not require any previous knowledge, only the willingness to enter new territory. I am talking about free improvisation with no rules. However, a few agreements help to prevent the whole…

di Monica Moroni Il flauto basso è in chiave di C, intonato una ottava sotto il flauto da concerto. Anche se il nome fa pensare ad un suono cupo,la sua gamma di esecuzione lo rende come un tenore nella famiglia dei flauti. Esso è lungo circa 146 cm e la testata è di solito realizzata a forma di U…

Sve do unazad par decenija, ovaj mali instrument bio je uglavnom upotrebljavan kao dodatak grupi flauta u orkestrima, koji proširuje njihov ukupan opseg…
Il suono dell’anima armena di Anush Naroyan L’Armenia è un paese antico: la sua cultura, così come le sue tradizioni, vantano una storia millenaria. Basterebbe evocare alcuni nomi: il monte Ararat, il lago Sevan… Già presente sulla mappa babilonese del V secolo a.C., il nome “Arminia” è menzionato per la prima volta dal re persiano Dario I (522 –…
by Stefan Keller The fascination of low flutes is something that has been haunting me for nearly thirty years. What really sets this fascination are the deep “slow” vibrations, the “sonorous sound”, the “resonance” of the different sized tubes, and the unbelievable sonority.

Автор – Софья де Салис Мы должны сделать свою мечту частью настоящего. Мы должны верить в мечту чтобы жить. А. Курпатов Испробовав огромное колличество методик планирования, прочтя множество книг на тему Таймменеджмента, планирования и личной эффективности, а такаже работая и практикуя разные методы с учениками, я нашла для себя самый эффективный алгоритм для любой деятельности или работы: Мечта – Цель –…
by Enrico Sartori When I talk about intermediate flute students I refer to those who had regular flute lessons for a semester or one year, learned all the positions of the first two octaves, some positions of the third (up to a G at least) and can play some easy repertoire. There are countless flute methods in different countries…
