Its range is to top C or D (three advanced options increase the level of difficulty). No advanced techniques are used. Like many of Ian’s pieces Hypnosis has been used with great success for auditions, music festivals, A level recitals and degree recitals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"Wp-Body-P\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Body-C-C1\"\u003eAlong with ‘maya’,  ‘Sunstreams’  \u0026amp; ‘Sunday Morning’, ‘\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Body-C-C3\"\u003eHypnosis’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Body-C-C1\"\u003e lies in the category of pieces that are re-workings of tracks originally co-written by Ian with David Hicks and Simon Painter when they worked together both in the studio and as a performing rock group. Chronologically they are the oldest in origin, although they were revisited by Ian some years after the group disbanded. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Body-C-C3\"\u003e‘Hypnosis’\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Body-C-C1\"\u003e was one of the most popular tracks in live performance alongside a more conventional set of rock songs. It evolved as a structured improvisation over numerous gigs between 1986 \u0026amp; 1988. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Body-C-C1\"\u003eThe piece was developed into a piano and flute piece by Ian in 1994. Many of the sixteenth\/semi-quaver motifs of the piano were amongst new developments whilst the original opening bass line can still be heard. Inevitably due to the nature of its evolution as a piece the line of the flute has a naturally expressive, free and organic quality. There are no required extended techniques and the piece does not require open-holes or a B foot joint; there is an optional bend to the last note. There are easier alternatives for some of the runs and an optional high D climax; the less virtuosic runs are marked as the principal option whilst the more difficult runs are marked as the ossia or alternative.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis item is the new second edition. It has a clearer type face and includes some minor additions including some new breath markings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IC Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46965344600358,"sku":"9790708077039","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/files\/9790708077039.jpg?v=1733940144","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/clarke-i-hypnosis","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
