| ED9762 NEW! | ADVANCED RECORDER TECHNIQUE The Art of Playing the Recorder Vol 2 Breathing and Sound / by Gudrun Heyens “A technique for breathing is introduced which deals exclusively with the particular re-quirements of blowing on the recorder both as a physical action and as creative note-shaping. It is intended for advanced recorder players, recorder teachers and amateur mu-sicians who want to develop awareness and confidence in their use of breathing. All ex-ercises and explanations relate directly to developing the skills necessary for playing the recorder. Intonation is given priority over physical skills and from this it follows that ex-ercises for developing awareness of the breathing apparatus are provided rather than a programme of physical training.” 47 pages |
