This includes primarily practices in holding first noest of a group of fast notes, ex: the first and third of four sixteenth notes, or the first and third of a triplet, etc. Individual exrecises for tone quality, proper embouchure and breathing exercises are also part of instruction and guided such that each exercises correspond to individual student skills. Musicality and Baroque and Classic principles of performance are taught with composers such as Marcello, Bach, Hummel for their transparent structure and simple technical aspect.
