Summary of This Score
Designed around a proposal by Richard Rimbert (professor at the CRR and PESMD of Bordeaux), this collection highlights a simple and effective idea: learning your instrument by making music with others, without delay. Jacques Ballue's pieces aim to establish essential collective playing reflexes very early on: shared breathing, voice balance, precise phrase beginnings and endings, and active listening within the section.
One of the collection's strengths lies in its ensemble compatibility. It can be layered with the collection of the same name for clarinet quartets or integrated with a piano accompaniment. This approach allows multiple groups and levels to come together around the same repertoire, to easily "play Tutti" and give a true concert dimension to a pedagogical audition.
Practically, the use of a playback with online audio provides a stable and motivating framework to work on tempo, consistency, and ensemble coordination. The collection also embraces a modern approach: exploration of playing with audio support, openness to improvisation, and work in variable geometry ensembles. An ideal score to build a progressive, dynamic, and concrete pathway from individual practice to the joy of collective music-making.
