Session Description:
Join Dr. Cate Hummel for a participatory workshop on the 24 Little Melodic Studies by Marcel Moyse. We will explore principles of phrasing, articulation and breath control that Moyse sought to illustrate for flute players with several of the melodies from the 24 Little Melodic Studies. Learn how to incorporate these elements into your own playing and gain insight into the uses of the variations of many of these melodies.
