Sound in Motion – A Performer`s Guide to Greater Musical Expression

Autor David Mcgill
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 mar 2009
Drawing from the legacy of Marcel Tabuteau, David McGill has assembled an imaginative study that builds on Tabuteau's gift as a musician and teacher. Sound in Motion is a creative work that uses the ideas of Tabuteau, John de Lancie, Sol Schoenbach, and John Minsker to develop musical thought. McGill discusses musical analysis and skeletal structure to help guide phrasing ideas. He considers each elemnet of playing an instrument and contemplates how to improve and develop them. Note grouping, phrasing, breathing, vibrato, and rubato are some of the concepts covered. McGill includes a section that focuses on professional activities such as auditioning, performing, and teaching. Musicians and vocalists alike will find that many of the ideas presented in this book will help develop their musicianship and improve their performance.

About the Author

Recenzii

"I do not know if David McGill set out to write a book primarily about bassoon playing, but what he ended up with is a most important, all-encompassing book about music, its nature and its significance, not only for the professional musician, but for all those who see in it an expression of human creation. He deals with the different expressive means of sound, of styles and, perhaps most important of all for the practicing musician: the connection between attitude and aptitude." Daniel Barenboim
