TECHNICAL AND STYLISTIC ANALYSIS OF THE NUMBER 2 ETUDE FROM OP.15 ETUDE BOOK BY CARL JOACHIM ANDERSEN

The etudes which have an important role in solving the technical and musical problems that an individual comes across during the instrument training are used effectively during this process in terms of purpose and practice. Within this scope, the etudes, a being part of systematic study to improve the technique, are thought to have an important place in solving the specific, technical and musical problems. The etudes written for the purpose of improving the instrument are the exercises that help to improve the instrument technique at the mastery level, which help to overcome many of the difficulties encountered in the studied work and which benefit the technique that the performer will gain. Many composers have written books about improving the instrument technique and mastery level. In this context, it’s believed that C .J. Andersen’s etude books which are among the flute literature have an important role in gaining technical and musical outcomes in flute training. For this purpose, technical and stylistic analysis of the Number 2 Etude in C. J. Andersen’s Op. 15 has been done in this study. As a result of the research, it’s been determined that etudes have an important place in flute training in terms of technical and musical development. This study supports a more permanent and healthy flute education in terms of the technical clustering and stylistic analysis of the study. Analyses of works and studies conducted for instrument education are necessary and important in terms of better understanding and interpretation of works or studies that are studied.
