Professor Gergely Ittzés invites you to an expedition exploring the instrument flute, with a focus on sounds and playing techniques beyond classical flute playing. This journey requires curiosity, playfulness, imagination, perseverance, and patience. As a reward for your efforts, you can be certain that the journey will be worthwhile, regardless of how far you wish to go. You will make new discoveries and experience previously unknown sensations and sounds. Throughout this process, you will acquire knowledge that will benefit you directly or indirectly, even if you are performing traditional tasks. The edition is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the flute, whether for instrumental practice, composition, or the intensive study of this versatile instrument and its sound worlds. Gergely Ittzés presents 42 imaginative miniature studies that lead the reader into new worlds of sound. His precise instructions and fascinating interpretation of the pieces make Ittzés' Flute Expedition an indispensable travel companion. Ittzés is deeply influenced by Hungarian music and continues the tradition of Mikrokosmos (Bartók), Fingerlarks (Veress) and Játékok (Kurtág). Ittzés is a reliable and trustworthy artist when it comes to playing and performing the most demanding flute repertoire of our time. He provides guidance and inspiration for every nuanced gesture, explicit fingering, and technical, acrobatic, and polyphonic requirement. His latest work offers a guide to modern flute playing. Additional material, including explanatory texts in English, German, and Hungarian, as well as notes on fingering notation and symbol legends, is available for download at Schott. To implement the techniques used in this Flute Expedition effectively, accompanying video material is also available through the edition. There is also an opportunity to directly contact the author and discuss ideas and experiences of using Flute Expeditions with other musicians in an online group.

'In our flute tutor we have tried to allocate the musical and technical content in such a way as to make the path of development smooth and obstacle-free for beginners. This is a Hungarian tutor that we are publishing. Our aim is that the beginner should first play on his instrument in his musical native language, that of Hungarian folk music. For this reason the majority of the exercises are folk melodies or compositions created in the spirit of folk song. In addition to Hungarian folk music, the volume also contains folk music from other countries, and classical music. Of etudes in the traditional sense of the word we have included only as much as was absolutelyessential...' (Zoltán Jeney) In der vorliegenden Flötenschule waren wir bestrebt, durch gestuftes Aufschlichten des musikalischen und technischen Lehrstoffes den Entwicklungsweg für den Anfänger möglichst leicht und reibungslos zu gestalten. Unsere Absicht war eine moderne, den heutigen Erfordernissen entsprechende Flötenschule zusammenzustellen. Eben deshalb sind die Übungen größtenteils Volksliedbearbeitungen oder Kompositionen, die im Geiste der Volksmusik geschaffen wurden. Neben den Volksliedern ist aber auch der klassischen Musik entsprechender Raum gelassen worden. Etüden in altem Sinne des Wortes bringen wir nur in unbedingt notwendigem Ausmaße. Die Übungen sind in ihrer überwiegenden Mehrzahllebendige Musik, musikalisch anspruchsvolle, sorgfältig geformte Werke, deren Verfasser zu den besten ungarischen Komponisten zählen.

Charles Camilleri (1931 - 2009) was a Maltese composer. As a teenager, he composed a number of works based on folk music and legends of his native Malta. He moved from his early influences by Maltese folk music to a musical form in which nothing is fixed and his compositions evolve from themselves with a sense of fluency and inevitability. He composed over 100 works for orchestra, chamber ensemble, voice and solo instruments. Camilleri's work has been performed throughout the world and his research of folk music and improvisation, the influences of the sounds of Africa and Asia, together with the academic study of European music, helped him create a universal style. Camilleri is recognized in Malta as one of the major composers of his generation. He died on 3 January 2009 at the age of 77. His funeral took place two days later at Naxxar, his long-time town of residence. Flags across Malta were flown at half-mast in tribute to him.

French flautist Marcel Moyse (1889-1984) studied at the Paris Conservatoire before becoming a renowned performer on the instrument. He was also responsible for training a brilliant generation of flute players and his combined experience and expertise created the well-informed compilation, 50 Melodic Studies by Demersseman for Flute. With notes in French, English, German and Japanese, Moyse's studies are accessible and versatile. Focus in the second volume is given to fingering, phrasing, tempo, breath control, articulation, intervals, range, and ornamentation, among other musical aspects. 50 Melodic Studies for Flute, based on studies by flautist, Jules Demersseman (1833-1866) is essential to the technical progress of advanced flautists.
