H. Lussenburg

Progressive Studies

The instrumental technique boasts a number of constant elements such as breathing, tone production, articulation and fingering. Besides several variable components, most compositions also have some constantly recurring patterns, such as scale figures, broken chords, rhythmical figures etc... Each music teacher will urge his pupils to study every day these fundamentals of instrumental playing. Such exercises also lend themselves very well to help to improve the orchestral playing or they can be used as warm up at rehearsals. With these orchestral studies Hans Lussenburg meets a big need and with his great experience he knows precisely how to handle this matter.
