Hi everyone,
In todays post I'm going to talk about De La Sonorite by Marcel Moyse, and this in ways follows on from Moyse's 'Beginning the Flute' book.
'De La Sonorite' is all about developing your flute technique, and I would say that this book is more suitable for intermediate to advanced flute players.
The book starts off with developing your tone throughout all three registers, suppleness in the lower register, attack and slurring of notes, fullness of tone, and also the management of tone in interpretation.
Each area of the book is then broken down into smaller sections to make it more manageable for the flute learner. Also, within each section there's an in depth description on what to do to get the best out of your overall flute playing,
I've heard this book described as a 'Flute Bible', as flute players for decades have used it due to it being useful to really develop on the flute. The book itself is set out in a way to be really approachable for all flute players, and the in depth descriptions on 'what to do' will get the best out of your playing.
