Reviews

Nicholas Baragwanath's The Solfeggio Tradition opens up numerous new perspectives! Following up on recent research in partimento and practical counterpoint, Baragwanath fills the missing gaps in our understanding of singing and melody in music education at the old Italian conservatories. * Peter van Tour, author of Counterpoint and Partimento (Uppsala, 2015) * Nicholas Baragwanath's research into the craft of solfeggio training gives the reader a new and original insight into historical music pedagogy: esoteric teaching (and learning) codes are eventually cracked and explained in a lively prose. * Rosa Cafiero, Universita Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Milano *
