About
French flautist, Joseph-Henri Altès provides instruction on modern technique, supported by expansive exercises. In volume one, a complete description of the Flute and how to maintain it is included, followed by studies on tone, fingering and the range of the instrument.
This Altès volume concludes with further progressive exercises to ensure a smooth development and transition to the studies of the second volume. Célèbre Méthode Complète de Flûte (Volume 1) also considers posture, the production of sound, breath control, note values, time signatures and key signatures, among other aspects.
Joseph-Henri Altès
Joseph-Henri Altès (1826-1895)[1] was a French flautist, composer and teacher.
In 1840, he won a place at the Conservatoire de Paris studying with the renowned flautist/composer of the time, Jean-Louis Tulou.
From 1848 to 1872, he was Principal Flute of the Orchestre de l’Opéra National de Paris. In 1868 he was appointed as a flute professor at the Paris Conservatoire teaching students such as Georges Barrère and Adolphe Hennebains.
His ‘Célèbre méthode complète de flûte’ remains a popular method in the flute repertoire. Housed at the Paris Conservatoire are forty of his compositions, including his fantasies on opera themes and six solos used for the annual Concours at the Paris Conservatoire.
