Henrik Wiese once again draws on his wealth of experience as a flutist and pedagogue: with his book “The Piccolo & Alto Flute Audition“, he has compiled a total of 207 audition excerpts in a carefully edited and clearly arranged compendium. In alphabetical order, it contains standard passages from orchestral works of various genres throughout music history, both common and less frequently requested. This up-to-date collection is a reliable companion and indispensable for optimal preparation for international auditions of all kinds at the opera, with symphony or chamber orchestras.
Easy-to-read, uniform and modern layout make the edition convenient to use. The critical report and chronological list of audition excerpts for quicker stylistic classification make the editor a comprehensive coach for flutists. Numerous other tips and remarks gained by Wiese from his practical experience and exchange with colleagues and students complete the book. International demand is fulfilled by the texts being in three languages (German, French, English), thus making “The Piccolo & Alto Flute Audition“ the equivalent of the already established edition “The Flute Audition“.

The New Essential Companion. Henrik Wiese, the internationally renowned orchestral and solo flautist, has spent four years compiling what promises to be the definitive guide to audition repertoire for students preparing for a seat in a professional orchestra. He has worked with his own students in Salzburg as they engaged in auditions, as well as with other professional players and his teaching colleagues at the conservatorium. He sourced repertoire lists from job advertisements past and present and referred to other audition lists such as those of Baxtresser and Wye. Considerable research has gone into the differences between existing editions of the chosen pieces even, surprisingly, from twentieth century composers such as Prokofiev and Stravinsky. 'The Flute Audition” then looks at practical matters such as page turns and metronome markings. Wiese comments, for example, that Hindemith's own recording takes a passage from 'Symphonic Metamorphoses” markedly slower than in the score. The result of all this painstaking research is the most comprehensive collection of international audition pieces yet published in a single volume. 'This is an excellent collection of orchestral excerpts for the next generation of young musicians. You can use it to prepare for auditions anywhere in the world. Whether it's for an opera house, symphony or chamber orchestra, everything you need is here.'/ Recueil / Flûte Traversière

Par CLARDY MARY KAREN (Arr.). Continuing in the tradition of previous publications in the Classics series: Classic Solos and Classic Duets, Mary Karen Clardy has selected 24 of the most significant standard études from Carl Joachim Andersen's op. 21, 30, 33, 37 and 41, Antoine Benoit Tranquille Berbiguier's Studies and Ernesto Köhler's Romantic Études op. 66. Performance notes, composers' biographies and a glossary of terms are included providing helpful historical background to the pieces. An optional second flute part has been composed for each étude providing opportunities for the teacher or another player to support and reinforce phrasing, rhythm, tone quality, intonation and style. These parts may be downloaded for free from our website. The second flute parts have been recorded on the CD to provide supportive accompaniments for playing along - an invaluable aid in daily practice./ Etude / Flûte Traversière
