Not Just the Alto
Author: David Lasocki
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN: 9781655627361
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
According to myth (or received opinion), the wealth of sizes of recorder present in the Renaissance petered out in the Baroque period, until only the alto (British: treble) was left, except for a few smaller sizes in concertos and vocal music. In this book David Lasocki examines all the surviving writings between about 1600 and 1800 (treatises, tutors, inventories, advertisements, purchases and sales) as well as indications of instrumentation in the repertoire. He concludes that sizes of recorder besides the alto were far more common and far more diverse than we have imagined. Imagine!

Vivaldi's Music for Flute and Recorder
Author: Michael Talbot
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351537288
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 375
Book Description
Federico Maria Sardelli writes from the perspective of a professional baroque flautist and recorder-player, as well as from that of an experienced and committed scholar, in order to shed light on the bewildering array of sizes and tunings of the recorder and transverse flute families as they relate to Antonio Vivaldi's compositions. Sardelli draws copiously on primary documents to analyse and place in context the capable and surprisingly progressive instrumental technique displayed in Vivaldi's music. The book includes a discussion of the much-disputed chronology of Vivaldi's works, drawing on both internal and external evidence. Each known piece by him in which the flute or the recorder appears is evaluated fully from historical, biographical, technical and aesthetic standpoints. This book is designed to appeal not only to Vivaldi scholars and lovers of the composer's music, but also to players of the two instruments, students of organology and those with an interest in late baroque music in general. Vivaldi is a composer who constantly springs surprises as, even today, new pieces are discovered or old ones reinterpreted. Much has happened since Sardelli's book was first published in Italian, and this new English version takes full account of all these new discoveries and developments. The reader will be left with a much fuller picture of the composer and his times, and the knowledge and insights gained from minutely examining his music for these two wind instruments will be found to have a wider relevance for his work as a whole. Generous music examples and illustrations bring the book's arguments to life.

Baroque Woodwind Instruments
Author: Paul Carroll
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351574655
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
The late 17th century through to the end of the 18th century saw rapid progress in the development of woodwind instruments and the composition of a vast body of music for those instruments. During this period a large amount of music for domestic consumption was written for a growing amateur market, a market which has regrown in the latter part of the 20th century. The last 30 years has also seen the standard of performance by professionals on these instruments rise enormously. This book provides a guide to the history of the four main woodwind instruments of the Baroque, the flute, oboe, recorder and bassoon, and this is complemented by a repertoire list for each instrument. It also guides those interested towards a basic technique for playing these instruments - a certain level of musical literacy is assumed - and it can be used by students, professionals and amateurs. Advice is also given on buying a suitable reproduction instrument from a market where now virtually any Baroque instrument can be obtained as a faithful copy. This is the first book of its kind and has its origins in the wind tutors of the 18th century.
