An All-Zoom Practice Challenge: Developing Your Friendship with French Baroque Music 
1:15 pm - 2:30 pm Pacific/2:15 pm - 3:30 pm Mountain/3:15 pm - 4:30 pm Central/4:15 pm - 5:30 pm Eastern
This class will build on my January Making Friends with French Baroque Music class.  Familiarity with French Baroque ornaments as found in Hotteterre's ornament chart and as seen in music by Hotteterre will be helpful for new participants.  Boismortier, Hotteterre, Dieupart, and others who were composing and performing in French aristocratic circles in the 18th century offer a wealth of beautiful music for us to discover.  We'll continue our study of the French agréments - trills, the port de voix, battement, flattement, tour de chant, and tour de gosier - in context so they become second nature.  We'll listen to recordings to hear the music that charmed Louis XIV and XV and their courts. We'll go deeper into learning how to adorn movements from suites by Boismortier and Hotteterre with beautiful ornaments! Geared toward upper intermediate to advanced alto recorder players.
