OverviewOne of the most influential figures of the twentieth-century revival of early music, Arnold Dolmetsch was the first to apply scholarly attention to the issue of authentic historical performance. His groundbreaking 1915 study remains a landmark of musicology, offering not only a text on performance practices of the baroque but also glimpses of what the music meant - both as an art and a science - to musicians of the period. Topics include tempo, rhythm, ornamentation, figured bass realization, wrist positioning and fingering, and musical instruments of the era. This new edition features a rare appendix of musical examples. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Arnold Dolmetsch , R Alec HarmanPublisher: Dover Publications Inc. Imprint: Dover Publications Inc.
