“Essential!”
For all of us who hold the books of Marcel Moyse close to our hearts, especially Tone Development, this is wonderful! Here are 30 of the melodies from the orginal but now with all the extra information you need to try to play them well. Each aria has the words printed beneath the flute line and is set into the context of the operatic story. Perhaps the most valuable part, however, is Moyse's own instruction manual on how to practise them. For him this was just a starting point. 'Listen and compare. You can augment the value of this book by adding melodies that you love, that inspire you, and that seem likely to help you progress'. This book will help everyone on that journey, whether you are a Moyse fan or someone new to his teaching. Essential!
