Summary of This Method
Or how to play in all keys while traveling the world offers a study path that is both educational and motivating: 28 studies built from folk melodies from diverse horizons. This rich repertoire allows breaking away from usual patterns and approaching different melodic turns, accents, and atmospheres, while maintaining a central goal: mastering key changes.
Designed for students at the end of the 1st cycle and in the 2nd cycle, these studies support technical and musical progression at a level where tonal flexibility becomes a real challenge. By exploring multiple keys, the student strengthens their landmarks (key signatures, accidentals, implicit harmonic functions) and acquires faster reading reflexes. It is also an excellent resource to consolidate intonation, sound stability, and fingering anticipation, while working on expressiveness through singing and immediately recognizable themes. A relevant method for individual lessons, personal practice, and regular training in transposition and tonal adaptation, regardless of the saxophone used.
