Event Description
So, you want to add some ornaments to a baroque sonata movement. Where to start? Using Eric Haas’s recently updated and expanded The Grammar of Ornament as our text, we’ll break it all down. What are the main types of ornaments and where should you use them? How do you pace your ornamentation so that it flows well and enhances the original piece? What are the keys to making your ornamentation seem cohesive and distinctive? Do you have to be original, or can formulas help? For alto recorders at A=440, Intermediate and up.

(Please note: It is not necessary for participants to purchase Eric Haas' book ahead of this workshop, as Eric has graciously agreed to having select excerpts from The Grammar of Ornament be used for this occasion. However, anyone wanting to dive more deeply into Baroque ornamentation will benefit from owning their own copy of this invaluable resource! The book can be purchased via the Von Huene webstore at https://www.vonhuene.com/.)
