Discover the thrill of music from the time of kings and queens -- captivating dances, consorts, and modal melodies from centuries past! This class includes some friendly, relaxed chamber music sight-reading of these little-known but exciting repertoires, plus adventures in ornamentation and a chance to try historical musical instruments including the viola da gamba and medieval fiddle.
Participants should be instrumentalists aged 8-14 who can read music and are able to play in the keys of D, G, and C major on their bowed, plucked, or wind instrument. Please feel free to contact the director with any questions.
The class is taught by SHAK director Shulamit Kleinerman, who has been sharing the delights of these historical repertoires with children and teens since 2006.
