“A vengeful caller sending a frazzled shock-jock on an overnight odyssey isn't a bad idea.” Rotten Tomatoes
The suggested approach to learning and practice, and the advice of Dr.Cate Hummel in this article, is very valuable and effective for flutists to study a wide repertoire thoughtfully and in depth, while mastering the instrument at the highest level. Great ideas also for teachers. Thank you!
Muchas gracias Dra. Cate por sugerir revisar la bibliografía de un gran maestro legendario de la flauta como fue Moyse y su influencia en el estudio de la flauta moderna. Excelente artículo que anima a investigar sobre el tema.
Great article, dear Cate, and not only for students…
Congratulations!
This was a great article. It makes me want to dig the book out. I don’t think I’ve had anybody tell me exactly how to work through it though. Do you just play The Melodies until they sound as pretty as you think they can? Thanks!!
Awesome work! Thank you
I’m so glad I found your article. I am a saxophonist researching instrumental methods and teachers who allude to singing. I would love to read your dissertation on Moyse’s approach! I hope to hear from you.
