Bøger af Georgy Minasyan (Minasov)

The Duduk For Beginners is specifically created for beginner duduk players in mind who are just entering the mystical world of this beautiful Armenian instrument. The first edition includes scales, studies, and etudes to improve beginner duduk player performance, as well as plenty of material to build your first playing repertoire. Specific attention was paid to include works of Armenian, Russian and Western European composers in addition to traditional Armenian spiritual, folk music, gussan songs and dance melodies. The book is divided into three parts: - Introduction to duduk, basic scales, exercises for each scale, as well as various melodies to make things more interesting.- Duduk solo repertoire arrangements from variety of genres, including classics adaptations (Mozart, Bach, Marcello.)- Duduk repertoire with piano arrangements, including beautiful pieces like Lullaby by Johannes Brahms, etc.

"Duduk Repertoire with Piano Accompaniment" in two volumes is the third book of Honored Artist of Republic of Armena, master player and teacher Georgy Minasyan (Minasov). Being the first of its type ever being published for worldwide duduk players, the book contains wide selection of Armenian folk, gusan and spiritual music, as well as classical works of Armenian, Russian and Western European composers arranged for traditional and extended range Armenian duduks. Two volumes contain over 160 musical pieces of music with varying degrees of complexity designed for all levels of performing skills - from elementary to professional.

Being the first ever scales and exercise book published for Armenian traditional and extended range duduk (invented by Georgy Minasyan himself) Duduk Virtuoso has been written having the future of duduk in mind. While the traditional duduk has limited playing range of around one octave, extended range duduk allows performance across two octaves and in all twelve keys, significantly increasing the instrument's repertoire. Therefore the book has dual purpose: to help aspiring musicians to increase playing proficiency of the traditional instrument, and to bring to light the full potential of the instrument through mastering the improved instrument. The material, therefore, is designed in a way that will help both curious students and professional performers to further develop the flexibility and agility in all the fingers across the scales previously unfamiliar to traditional duduk. The scales and exercises are sequenced from easy to complex, so that each successive exercise increases the performance challenge and builds the mastery.
