Summary of This Method

This collection brings together 36 pieces designed to develop mastery of shifting in a concrete and musical way. Rather than staying in abstract exercises, each title offers a playing situation where position changes become reflexive: anticipating movement, left-hand stability, control of intonation upon arrival, and continuity of sound during the shift.

The content alternates between compositions by Nico Dezaire with a strong character (jazz colors, blues, dances, and pieces with marked groove) and arrangements of essential themes that stimulate the desire to play: Saint-Saëns ("The Elephant"), Brahms ("Hungarian Dance No. 5"), Holst ("Jupiter"), Beethoven (Allegretto from Symphony No. 6), Puccini ("One Fine Day"), Verdi ("La donna è mobile"), and Vivaldi (Largo from "Winter"). It also includes traditional melodies such as "Greensleeves" and a popular French song.

Thanks to this diversity of styles, shifting work is approached from several angles: fast sequences, wider shifts, position changes integrated into a melodic line, and management of musical energy (from "cha cha" to waltzes and marches). An excellent resource to strengthen technique while building an expressive and enjoyable repertoire to perform.
