Working on better legato playing, better co-ordination of the tongue and abdomen, working on a better decrescendo and crescendo technique. Just a few of the benefits of studying this version of Köhlers famous study. If you work on this version alongside the original version you will gain more control. And more control equals better playing. Have fun!
This arrangement can help you develop a lot of skills.
The flutter tongue passages are useful for developing support and you can become aware of tension in the throat. The wind tones are useful for practising the movement we make while playing a decrescendo. Tone bending is useful for developing aural skills and it will make you more aware of the right flute angle. Key clicks with sound can help you get a better co-ordination between the tongue and the fingers and pizzicato also helps you develop co-ordination of the tongue and abdomen.
Never a dull moment with this variation on a study by Louis Drouet. Very useful too! Improve your skills even faster.
