Yves Michel editions announce the release of a guide with 52 exercises to explore intuitive music, a approach accessible to all.
The Yves Michel editions, based in Gap, announce the release on June 11, 2026 of the book “Flourishing with Intuitive Music”, co-written by Corinne Ginisti Boch and Bernard Boch. Presented as the only practical guide in French on the subject, this book aims to popularize a sensory musical approach, free from the technical constraints of solfeggio and classical music theory.
A sensory and accessible approach to all
Intuitive music distinguishes itself from traditional music practice by focusing on the free exploration of sounds, timbres, and sonic atmospheres rather than the reproduction of structured melodies. This inclusive method is aimed at a wide audience, from complete beginners to experienced musicians eager to experiment with a new facet of their creativity.
One of the fundamental principles of this approach is its accessibility: no prior knowledge is required. The practice includes the use of all types of instruments, as well as voice and body vibrations, inviting everyone to reconnect with their innate sound potential. The goal is to transform the relationship with music into a personal and playful experience, focused on feelings and letting go.
A practical and playful guide
Structured as a true experimental manual, “Flourishing with Intuitive Music” contains 52 exercises and games designed to be practiced alone or in a group. Activities are classified into two main categories, “with an instrument” and “with the voice”, allowing for a pedagogical progression tailored to individual preferences.
To enrich the experience, the book includes QR codes providing access to three soundtracks. These recordings serve as support and inspiration to guide users in their initial explorations. This digital accompaniment anchors the process in a concrete and immersive practice. The book, with a size of 15×21 cm, has 144 pages and is available for 15.90 euros. (ISBN: 9782840589853)
Authors with complementary expertise
The book is the result of the collaboration between Bernard Boch and Corinne Ginisti Boch, a duo combining technical and artistic skills. Bernard Boch is a luthier and co-founder of the music store Pick and Boch in Lyon, bringing his in-depth knowledge of instruments. Corinne Ginisti Boch is a director and teacher of the F.M. Alexander technique, specializing in body awareness and movement.
Their combined expertise is enhanced by shared training in MDH Respiratory Coordination and sound therapy, disciplines that place sound and breath at the core of well-being. This dual approach ensures content that is both rigorous in terms of sound and caring in terms of the body.
