Description
Douze Études by Jacques Delécluse (born 1933) is a set of twelves
studies often used as solos for exams or auditions. Written for
intermediate
to advanced level, they are considered quite difficult, the difficulty
progressing throughout the book.
Douze Études particularly helps to develop precision and mastery over
the roll. It uses dynamic changes, placement of ornaments
and frequent time
changes. It is a must for serious percussionists and, as such, is widely used
all over the world.
The author, Jacques Delécluse, is a soloist at the Paris Orchestra and a
professor at the Conservatoire National de Musique de Paris.
He has conceived
a keyboard-percussion instrument that holds his name and is also the author of a
series of seven books “À la man
ière de” for Drums and
Piano.
