Viol consorts
Alison Crum, Peter Syrus
This weekend of music for voices and viols will include madrigals and motets by various composers, as well as some larger scale works. There may also be some
opportunity for consort songs. Come and explore some of this rich repertoire with two leading experts in the field. Singers should be good sight readers, and
experienced in singing one to a part. Viol players who sing and singers who play viols are especially welcome. We’ll be playing at A = 415 Hz.
Course code: 12/239

Matters of Style: Baroque Performance on Modern Strings with Judy Tarling
Sacrilege? Not at all. Judy Tarling will show participants, who should be of intermediate to advanced standard, how it’s possible to apply historical performance
principles when you play music written before about 1750 on modern instruments at standard concert pitch (A = 440Hz). We’ll look at music by composers like
Corelli, Handel and Vivaldi as well as less familiar repertoire, and there might be some solo opportunities. Judy is a much loved Benslow regular as well as a
world-renowned baroque violinist, and you’ll go away with fresh insights into this wonderful repertoire. Good sight reading ability will be an advantage.
