Summary of This Method
The "Going Solo" series offers a progressive approach to solo playing for woodwind instruments, with the clear goal of guiding young musicians toward more autonomous and accomplished playing. The principle is based on a carefully chosen repertoire that is both motivating and educational: it includes transcriptions of famous solos from major masterpieces of the orchestral repertoire, providing initial exposure to essential themes and a genuine musical culture.
Additionally, the method broadens stylistic horizons through arranged pieces covering several eras, from the Renaissance to the 20th century. This diversity allows for work on articulation, phrasing, breathing, and line management, while exploring very different characters. Designed as a lively and stimulating collection, "Going Solo" encourages fluid technique and helps the student feel ready to perform with a conductor or in front of an audience, with more assured musicality and growing confidence.
