    Online baroque ornamentation course

    Zoom course

    ONLINE COURSE
    Ornamentation in the Baroque

    For all levels -Beginning of July – Online

    We dive into ornamentation for a slow movement with Johann Joachim Quantz’s help. Quantz left us an example adagio constructed from basic building blocks. For each building block he notated several ornaments that work. These same building blocks can be found everywhere in baroque music! 

    On the first day of the course we will work on learning options for one building block, and how to fill up intervals. We are using Quantz’s own Adagio!
