Marcel Moyse

Marcel Moyse was a famous French flute player, for whom many pieces were written. He was also a gifted flute teacher, and he produced several studies and exercises for flute. Marcel Moyse was born on the 17 May 1889 in St. Amour, France. He studied in the Paris Conservatory and was a student of Philippe Gaubert, Adolphe Hennebains and Paul Taffanel who were all distinguished virtuosos in their time. His trademark tone was clear, meaty and never sounds airy. This was the French style of flute playing that was to influence the modern standard for flautists worldwide. Marcel Moyse was the founder of the Marlboro Music School and Festival. He was an inspiring teacher who taught his students not how to play the flute but to make music. His son, Louis Moyse naturally inherited his talent and they performed together often. Among his many students were Trevor Wye, William Bennett (flautist)William Bennett and Sir James Galway. Marcel Moyse died on the 1st of November 1984 in the United States. Among the many studies that he wrote is the Tone Development through Interpretation published by Alphonse Leduc.
