RECORDER

30 AUGUST – 3 SEPTEMBER

GENERAL INFORMATION

This masterclass focuses on recorder music of the 17th and 18th centuries (solo and chamber music) and its typical forms within European national styles, such as the sonata, concerto, suite, fantasy or variation form, but also with the art of diminution. In addition to aspects of performance practice such as ornamentation, tempo, articulation or dance movement characteristics, intensive work will be carried out on the central aspects of recorder technique, and on the role of body perception. Each day of lessons includes a group session on technique.

A workshop dedicated to the preparation of Antonio Vivaldi’s “The celebrating Seine” RV 693 will be an integral part of the course. The serenade will be performed in concert within the Chigiana International Festival 2022 (September 2nd, Church of Sant’Agostino).
