Master classes

The necessity of good technique and sound

Roger´s focus for the master classes was emphasis on good technique and stick control. 

First day all the students, of different ages, came to play the methods of Jacques Delécluse. After working with details and other examples of etudes and methods, the next day the students came prepared with Morris Goldenberg, Anthony Cirone and Bent Lylloff. One student even presented Askell Massons Prim.

The classes came to be a challenge for the students and great development in their playing.

Another focus for the master classes was the importance of controlled sound on all the different instruments. Improvement of sound, character and controlled volume was exemplified in various orchestral excerpts.
