Marie Jaëll / La Touche

on: April 28, 2007, 12:40:32 PM

Does anyone know anything about either Marie Jaëll or about her method? I am also looking for a copy of her book "La Touche" in English, but do not know if that exists.

Thanks,
Michael

There's a Wikipedia article (in French)
and some information here from an exhibition.

A book about her method appears to be available through Amazon, by Catherine Guichard (Author).

HTH.
