Book excerpt: A professional flutist shares her experiences and insights - practical advice from practice room to stage and beyond. Written from the personal experiences of a professional flutist, Dawn's Flute Notes, Practical Advice for Flute Players from Practice Room to Stage is a look inside the real world of flute. It's a book designed to help both those who already do play flute and for those who are just contemplating flute for themselves or their children. This book is written for: * anyone who thinks they might want to explore playing music, particularly flute; * anyone who already plays flute who comes to those crossroads of what to do and where to go next, and maybe wonders if they should even go there; * parents who want to know what to expect or wonder at the wisdom (and expense) of starting their child in the art and discipline of studying music; * those who, having put aside their instrument for long years, wonder if they can pick it back up; * and, finally, those seeking to climb the ladder to the heights of 'renown'. Written in three parts, Part I, What You Don't Know Can Hurt You explores the world of flute as I know it, while the highly illustrated Part II, What You Know Will Help You shares some technical knowledge that can help you and can aid you in identifying which teachers do and don't know their stuff. In Part III, Coda, I share some parting thoughts about music as a career, especially as it applies to flutists, and some end notes on why and what I did and didn't include. For all levels of flutists, the beginner, the intermediate player, and for those thinking of maybe going on to major in music and go pro-, this book contains some eye-openers and some advice as well as practical hands-on technical knowledge. I share solutions to flute-specific problems often overlooked in standard study and give you tricks to help you avoid disaster in juries, recitals, tests, on stage in concert, and in the recording studio. For parents, this book will give you solid idea of what to look for in a teacher and what you and your child face both in study expectations and financially while advancing through levels of proficiency.

Download or read book The Renaissance Flute written by Kate Clark and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""The last four decades have seen a revival of interest in the renaissance transverse flute. The few collections of surviving original flutes from the sixteenth century have increasingly attracted musicologists, instrument makers, and players to examine, measure (and copy), perform and record on them. Renaissance flute workshops and summer courses attract students and amateur players in several corners of Europe every year. At the same time, renaissance manuscripts and early prints have increasingly become available on the internet, providing an ever-expanding supply of materials for flutists wanting to experience renaissance music for themselves. This handbook for renaissance flute players offers all the information needed to buy, maintain, and learn to play the renaissance flute, whether alone or in consort. It explains how to read and interpret renaissance music whether from original notation or in modern editions, how to make your own transcriptions, and how to write your own diminutions. It also introduces readers to the basics of renaissance music theory, in clear and simple language. At a time when the gap between the professional "classical" music world and its public seems to have grown irrevocably, this book aims to demystify the business of making beautiful music together. It is a key to the elegant, cylindrical flute that was played all over Europe in the age of polyphony and to the gentle art of consort playing.""--
