This is an in-depth guide to the performance of Baroque music for musicians, listeners, undergraduate and graduate music students, and conservatory and university instructors. Rigorously scholarly, yet readable by non-specialists, it is designed to serve not only as an introduction to historical performance for those new to the subject, but also as a reference book for those experienced in the field, and as a course book in early music performance practice. Part 1 covers essential topics such as historical voices and instruments, articulation, and ornamentation and improvisation. Part 2 turns to particular performance issues in selections ranging from vocal chamber music by Strozzi, Handel, Jacquet, and Bach to instrumental compositions by Castello, Corelli, Couperin, and (again) Bach.
The book draws on the author's broad experience as a performer, teacher and writer on Baroque music. It can serve as a general handbook on historical performance practice that also addresses specific questions raised by commonly performed recital and concert repertoire.
DAVID SCHULENBERG has performed on historical keyboard instruments across North America, Europe and Asia, and has recorded for Naxos, Hungaroton, and Brilliant Classics. His publications include The Music of Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (University of Rochester Press, 2014). He has taught at Boston University, the Juilliard School, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he directed the Collegium Musicum. His website schulenbergmusic.org features numerous recordings and editions.
