?Percussion
ist François Dupin
(1931-1994) studied at
the Paris Conservatoire
where he won many prizes,
including first prize for
composition. His
professional work as a
performer, composer and
teacher combined produced
many well-informed study
books for Percussion,
including Seventeen
Studies for Xylophone.
Following his graduation
from the Paris
Conservatoire, Dupin
worked with the Orchestre
Philharmonique de
Radio-France, and the
Orchestre de Paris when
it was first founded. He
then went on to establish
the first Percussion
class at the Lyon
Conservatoire where he
taught until his death.
It was during this time
that Dupin produced
Seventeen Studies for
Xylophone. These studies
address the difficulties
which students are likely
to have to overcome in
their future,
professional lives.
Fingerings are helpfully
suggested and clear
instruction in French,
English, German and
Spanish creates a highly
versatile study book.
François Dupin's
Seventeen Studies for
Xylophone is imperative
to the technical
progression of all
advanced Xylophone
players.andrdquo.
