Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good breath support improves your tone. You will be able to play louder, your tone will sound richer and your soft notes will project well, whilst remaining soft. Your intonation will naturally improve and you will be able to consistently play with a great tone every day. When we hear instructors tell us to support our tone, we know all the benefits, but we still do not know how to do it. Not only that, we do not even know what it is. If we do not know what it is, how can we do it? What is air support or breath support? And how does a flute player apply it to music? In Support: The Essential Guide For Flute Players, Australian flutist, Anna Papij, will teach you what support really is, how to do it and how to apply it to your flute playing to make you a better musician.

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.""--
