The aim of this 'Mètode bàsic per a l´estudi del tible' (Elementary method for studying the Catalan shawm) is to provide tible students with help in the form of learning materials for approaching the instrument in a graded manner (always under a teacher´s supervision).The first part, in addition to a brief history of the tible, presents its development and characteristics, and also includes explanations on learning it, such as:
holding the instrument, body posture, embouchure, breathing, tone production, tuning, fingering, vibrato, mechanism etc., the whole being intended to give tible students a sound base for developing in a positive way towards mastery of the instrument.
The second part of this work gives specific exercises for tackling each difficulty, along with simple studies. It was chosen not to go beyond semiquavers, and to use only three accidentals, in line with what the students will find later in playing in traditional cobla bands. As for its level, this course is meant to be suitable for up to the intermediate level.
