The Yves Michel editions announce the publication of a guide of 52 exercises to explore intuitive music, an 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. Presenting itself as the only practical guide in French on the subject, this book aims to democratize a sensory musical approach, free from the technical constraints of solfeggio and classical music theory.
A sensory and accessible approach for everyone
Intuitive music distinguishes itself from traditional musical 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 novices 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 involves 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 feeling 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. The activities are classified into two main categories: “with instrument” and “with voice”, allowing for a pedagogical progression adapted to everyone’s desires.
To enrich the experience, the book includes QR codes providing access to three sound tracks. These recordings serve as support and inspiration to guide users in their initial explorations. This digital accompaniment anchors the journey in a concrete and immersive practice. The book, in 15×21 cm format, comprises 144 pages and is priced at 15.90 EUR. (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 et Boch in Lyon, bringing his in-depth knowledge of instruments. Corinne Ginisti Boch is a stage director and teacher of the F.M. Alexander technique, specializing in body awareness and movement.
Their shared expertise is enhanced by a joint training in Respiratory Coordination MDH and sound therapy, disciplines that place sound and breath at the heart of well-being. This dual approach ensures content that is both rigorous in terms of sound and caring in terms of the body.
