Details:

The intent of this class is to give students the confidence to apply some basic “essential” graces to Baroque sonatas. We will not be venturing into the world of florid, coloratura ornaments—I am talking basics!  Using my own exercises and examples we will discuss and practice trills, turns, mordents, appoggiaturas and “nachschlags” in various keys, and then apply them to excerpts from sonatas by Handel, Telemann, Bigaglia and Marcello where participants will play along with pre-recorded bass lines. I guarantee you will leave this class trilling up a storm! 

Geared to: intermediate recorders and flutes, and more advanced players wishing to brush up their skills. Recorders will use F and C fingerings. Pitch:  A=440.

AEM Online classes are $25 per session.
