“An interesting take on a classic.”
Jasmine Choi presents the classic T&G exercises as they are with only minor tweaks to the note range, extended for modern playing. The interest is in seeing her own take on practising them which she developed through her student years and shares with us in her notes. She suggests using circular breathing for many of the exercises which takes them onto a different level altogether and will be great practice for anyone interested in this particular technique. This book would serve very well as a supplement to the orginal and gives us all something to think about!
