Extended Flexibility

The artistic biography of Raymond Mase, chair of the brass department of the well known Juilliard School in New York since 1991 is eloquent and inspires rightly reliability.

Extended Flexibility is the work of a wise, great performer who proposes unusual paths to progress, which will be very helpful for many musicians, student or professional, in order to discover new feelings and awareness. These exercises should prove to be of great value in developing instrumental technic and freedom in musicianship.

The different chapters guides the performer to refine his physical sensations in order to master his instrument with flexibility, calm and in a clever way instead of fighting tooth and nail, with rage.

I am really pleased that Editions Bim has decided to publish Raymond Mase's work. He is not only one of the best trumpet player/teachers around but is also a superb musician. Bravo!
