Early Music Workshop

Program Overview

2012 Theme: Music for Mary, Queen of Scots

Immerse yourself in French dances and chansons (Attaingnant, Moderne, Phalese, etc.) with Scottish courtly airs and some of the earliest notated folk music!

Participants will learn, arrange and perform Renaissance music. Topics will include articulation, ornamentation, improvisation and ensemble arrangement.  The workshop culminates with a participant performance on period instruments including recorders, other early winds, viols, lutes, harpsichord and percussion. Vocalists are also welcome.  Participants will supply their own instruments. 

"Mark is an exceptionally sensitive teacher who knows how and when to push individuals to achieve their utmost best.  I greatly appreciated his coaching as well as the variety of evening activities which were valuable, educational and very enjoyable."
Mary Lee O., 2006-2009 Early Music Workshop Participant
