VIOLA DA GAMBA
AND VIOL CONSORT

27 AUGUST – 3 SEPTEMBER

GENERAL INFORMATION

The course aims to guide participants in solving problems in technique or musicality while teaching a self-learning technique that can be used at all levels.

The reflection on the nature of the musical gesture, applicable to all repertoires, will have a central part in this course.

The “secret” didactic alphabet of Marin Marais and the new sources related to him, rediscovered and studied by the Mozarteum research team, will play a significant part in the instruction of the course.

In addition to individual lessons, students will have the opportunity to practice on instruments of the Consort, deepening both their interpretative and musical techniques. 

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).
