Marcel Moyse has become one of the legendary great flautists of the 20th century. As a pupil of Taffanel and successor to Gaubert at the Conservatoire National de Paris, he stands in the direct tradition of the French School'.Following his early studies on technique and tone, as well as his Golden Age for the Flutist and Tone Development through Interpretation, we are here presenting his last book of studies (1974) for the first time in a trilingual edition. Here Moyse has set out his pedagogic and artistic experiences in their entirety with the aim of helping not only professional flute players who have little time to practise, but everyone who loves the flute, while not forgetting the music.'Thus this volume is not restricted to technical exercises which often follow traditional patterns (Reichert), but it also aims to improve the basic aspects of flute playing (formation of tone, intonation, articulation, phrasing) using examples selected from the repertoire and in the service of mu

For the first time, all available sources of Engelbert Humperdinck''s fairy-tale opera, Hansel und Gretel, have been consulted in the preparation of the present new edition. In evaluating them it became clear that a great number of corrections needed to be taken into account, for which the composer was indebted to the experiences of conductors known to him - Richard Strauss (Weimar), Hermann Levi (Munich) and Ludwig Rottenberg (Frankfurt) - as well as hiw own insight. In this way, a critical edition has been produced which not only offers an Urtext entirely faithful to the sources, but also provides important new improvements, tested on the stage an approved by the composer. Where, previously, slight alterations have unquestionably been necessary in order to prevent the vocal lines from being covered by the large-scale orchestration, convincing and authentic solutions are now available. Also, for the first time, the work''s ''Desau-Finale'' has been published, which Humperdinck compose
