Trio
Flex is a clever
concept that offers you a
range of possible
options. As well as a
demo version played by
live instruments, the
enclosed CD contains two
play-along tracks for
each piece. One track
features the combo only,
and the other track
features the combo plus
the second and third
parts of the trio. Peter
Kleine Schaars has
arranged ten well-known
numbers for three wind
instruments in various
styles and genres. Play
the melody with the combo
on the CD, or play the
trio version with the
other two recorded parts.
That will sound great in
itself. But you can also
form a trio with two
co-players, and have
yourselves accompanied by
the combo on the CD. No
matterwihich variation
you choose, get ready for
a musical experience that
will amaze your audience!
Trio-Flex

tien bekende nummers voor
drie spelers in diverse

demelodie met het combo
op de cd, of speel de

ook met twee medespelers
een trio vormen en je
door het combo op de cd
laten begeleiden. Welke

kiest:bereid je voor op

bekannte Titel für
drei Flöten in
verschiedenen Genres und

zur Combo auf der CD

allerdings, wenn sich

The
Romanian pianist and
composer Violeta Dinescu
was born in Bucharest on
13 July 1953. There she
studied composition,
piano and education at
the C. Porumbescu
Conservatoire and in 1977
passed her state
examination with
distinction. After a
teaching assignment at
the George Enescu Music
School she moved to
Germany in 1982. Since
1996 she has been
professor of applied
composition at the
University of Oldenburg.
The two pieces for solo
flute appeal to the
imagination of the player
and require a performer
with a sense of rhythmic
and melodic freedom as
well as with experience
in using graphic
notation.

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.

For the
teacher of instrumental
music classes, individual
differences among
students are inevitable.
Unfortunately, the lack
of flexible materials
frequently forces
teachers to adopt a
quasi-instructional
procedure best described
as lockstep, where all
students in the class
rehearse each exercise
until the slow members of
the class succeed or
until the teacher gives
up. The Individualized
Instructor was designed
with the expectation that
students are different.
With this method, high-,
average-, and
low-achieving students in
a class are able to
progress simultaneously
at their own rate
according to their
interest and ability. In
addition, the flexibility
of the instructional
format often allows
twelve or more students
to perform different
musical material
simultaneously, thereby
eliminating the
“follow the
leader†approach to
music learning. All study
materials in the series
are musical. Nonmusical
exercises are excluded in
favor of folk song
literature, musical
rounds, and musical
ensembles. Furthermore,
The Individualized
Instructor encourages
students to think about
their music: to analyze
unfamiliar material,
generalize previously
learned concepts and
skills, and synthesize
all elements into a
musically proficient
performance. In addition,
this series develops many
fundamentals (tonality,
phrasing, tempo, and
musical style) through
the use of the singing
voice. Singing best
provides the
“musicalâ€
experience that,
subsequently, can be
applied to the
development of musically
sensitive instrumental
performance. Books 1, 2,
and 3 and the
supplementary books
ensure that these
fundamental ideas are
carried well beyond the
first year of
instruction.

until the teacher gives
up. The Individualized
Instructor was designed
with the expectation that
students are different.
With this method, high-,
average-, and
low-achieving students in
a class are able to
progress simultaneously
at their own rate
according to their
interest and ability. In
addition, the flexibility
of the instructional
format often allows
twelve or more students
to perform different
musical material
simultaneously, thereby
eliminating the
“follow the
leader†approach to
music learning. All study
materials in the series
are musical. Nonmusical
exercises are excluded in
favor of folk song
literature, musical
rounds, and musical
ensembles. Furthermore,
The Individualized
Instructor encourages
students to think about
their music: to analyze
unfamiliar material,
generalize previously
learned concepts and
skills, and synthesize
all elements into a
musically proficient
performance. In addition,
this series develops many
fundamentals (tonality,
phrasing, tempo, and
musical style) through
the use of the singing
voice. Singing best
provides the
“musicalâ€
experience that,
subsequently, can be
applied to the
development of musically
sensitive instrumental
performance. Books 1, 2,
and 3 and the
supplementary books
ensure that these
fundamental ideas are
carried well beyond the
first year of
instruction.
