Early Notation Ensemble: Mensural Notation of the 15th and 16th Centuries with Wendy Powers

Open to recorders, viols and other soft instruments (flute, lute, and others).

Class Description

Come to the sources of Renaissance polyphony! Class will explore German manuscript and print sources that include both duple and triple mensuration, with an eye toward gorgeous music and fun notation problems. Students should be familiar with C-clefs, ligatures, and triple notation. Depending on class size, sources may include works from sources such as the Glogauer Liederbuch, Munich 3 (Isaac masses), Forster part books, Grimm & Wyrsung’s Liber selectarum (Josquin, Isaac), and Formschneyder’s Trium vocum carminum, Ott & Formschneyder’s Novum et insignie (Josquin, Senfl), and others. For recorders, viols, and other soft instruments..

Newe Day, Newe Songs: Secular Polyphony from the Collections of Hans Ott with Lisa Solomon

Open to all voices and instruments.

Class Description

Greet the morning with polyphonic song! After warming up our voices, minds, and bodies, we’ll get to sing and play a selection of works from the secular anthologies of Hans Ott (d. 1546), 16th-century editor, publisher, bookseller, and champion of German Lieder in the tradition of Franco-Flemish polyphony. Based in Nuremberg, Ott published his first collection of German-language songs -- 121 newe Lieder (new songs) -- in 1534, the vast majority of them by Ludwig Senfl. Ten years later, he published another collection -- 115 guter newer Liedlein (good, new little songs) -- still predominated by Senfl, but this time from a wider array of composers (including Senfl's teacher Heinrich Isaac) and in multiple languages (including songs by Crecquillon and Verdelot). For both collections, Ott proclaimed the songs to be "lustig zu singen" (fun to sing) and "auf allerlei Instrument dienstlich" (playable on all kinds of instruments). Let's prove him right! For all voices and instruments..

The Art of Recorder Consort Playing: Turning Notes into Music

With Teresa Deskur, Na’ama Lion, Larry Lipkis; for all levels of recorders

Class Description

Have you always wanted to be a more expressive and agile consort player? This class will work on the skills you need to not only be a better player yourself, but to inspire your fellow consort players to turn notes into music! We’ll play consort music by early composers of German-speaking lands, from Biber to Bach and beyond! Hone important skills like intonation, tone colors, articulation, rhythm, and ensemble precision. We’ll learn how to make decisions about tempo, ornaments, dynamics, and phrasing. Classes will be divided by level and involve lots of playing and hands-on exploration!

End of the week performance a possibility! For players familiar with Renaissance recorder fingering who own or can borrow Renaissance consort recorders. Players must bring at least two sizes

Mattheson Recorder Sonatas with Rachel Begley

For intermediate to upper-intermediate recorders

Class Description

Wouldn't it be fun to go back in time and play recorder trios under the direction of the composer himself?! This class will channel the extraordinary Johann Mattheson (via his voluminous musical writings) to bring facility, clarity, flow and charm - his musical ideals - to his accessible yet sophisticated Opus 1 recorder sonatas, works which he wrote for the instrument he believed had the most beautiful sound and which he dedicated to amateur musicians.

Maximilian's Triumph - the musical renaissance at Innsbruck

With Mary Springfels, Arnie Tanimoto; open to viols. Pitch: A= 415

Class Description

Maximilian I, the first Hapsburg prince, was an ardent collector of music, musical instruments, and composers. Among these great Renaissance musicians were Paul Hofhaimer (1459-1537), Heinrich Isaac (1450-1517), and Ludwig Senfl (1517). He also amassed a splendid collection of musical instruments, including viols. We'll explore this marvelous repertoire of early consort music, addressing technical issues as they arise.

As Easy As “Ut Re Mi”: Solmization, Musica Ficta, and the Fingerboard with Mark Rimple

For lutes.

Class Description

While modern notation - including edited versions of Renaissance polyphony - tend to be specific in terms of unwritten accidentals, the original sources were often silent just when musicians trained to make decisions would have done so based on their initial training. In this class, we'll examine lute intabulations of vocal works and their sources to show how lutenists' arrangements document these decisions as they were made by the arranger. We will focus on theories and concepts taught by Hans Gerle, Francesco Spinacino and Vincenzo Galilei, with a special focus on Germanic composers and those active in German-speaking lands. This knowledge will help lutenists to better interpret the ensemble music that was a major source of their repertory and will also result in improved interpretation of ensemble music when reading from notation

Gems of the German Baroque - Harpsichord Masterclass with Kathryn Cok

For keyboard players.

Class Description

In this morning class, we will focus on the rich variety of keyboard music left to us by the likes of: J.S. Bach and sons, Buxtehude, Fischer, Froberger, Hasse, Handel, Heinichen, Pachelbel, and Walther, touching on performance styles and technique. Please prepare at least two pieces for the week.

Collegium: “A Little Mustard, Please!” with Lawrence Lipkis

Open to all instrumentalists and singers.

Class Description

In Collegium, we will focus on the music of Renaissance Swiss composer Ludwig Senfl (“little mustard” in German). Senfl, along with his teacher Heinrich Isaac, were pioneers in incorporating German folk songs into sophisticated polyphonic compositions, often interweaving two or even three songs into an exquisite contrapuntal tour-de-force. We’ll explore this large repertory of 16th c. German lieder that is in turn heartfelt, earthy, and downright beautiful. Open to all instrumentalists and singers..

Lute Ensemble: 15th Century Polyphony from the Lochamer Liederbuch and Buxheim Orgelbuch, with Mark Rimple

For lutes; harpists and other instrumentalists interested in this repertory also welcome.

Class Description

This class explores the local vs. the cosmopolitan musical lives of German musicians through two monumental collections of music, one of which was associated with the German organist/lutenist Conrad Paumann. While the best instrument for the class would be a five or six-course lute in G or A, a larger Renaissance lute is no barrier to entry.

Lute Masterclass: Renaissance Lute Topics with Christopher Morrongiello

For lutes.

Class Description

Participants are encouraged to prepare and perform pieces from the Renaissance lute repertoire before the class.

Klavierbüchlein with Alissa Duryee

For harpsichordists.

Class Description

The musical notebooks of the Bach family offer us a glimpse into their music-making and pedagogy. Together we will browse the pages of these notebooks in order to better understand the pathways to musicianship suggested within. Depending on enrollment, the class will involve playing, listening to, singing, creating original music, or all of the above. Though these notebooks are primarily keyboard-focused, students of any instrument or voice are warmly welcome as active participants. A wide range of levels of difficulty in these pieces means there is truly something for everyone.

Early Afternoon Class Period: 1:45 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.

Early Notation for the New or Rusty Reader with Miyo Aoki

For those new to reading early notation.

Class Description

Playing from original notation changes the way you hear and play music, and is a great way to improve almost every musical skill, including sight-reading, rhythm, and ensemble playing. It opens up a whole new world of repertoire by enabling you to play music that has not been published in a modern edition and brings us one step closer to the people and the culture that created and played it, allowing us a deeper appreciation of this music on its own terms. But most importantly, it’s fun! In this class, you’ll learn (or re-learn) the basics of reading Renaissance notation, practice skills that will help you to successfully play from it, and engage in plenty of therapeutic laughter along the way.

Sibyl of the Rhine: Chants from Hildegard’s 13th Vision, with Tracy Cowart

For singers.

Early Baroque Dance Music from Germany with Larry Lipkis

For intermediate to upper-intermediate recorders.

Class Description

The first few decades of the 17th century saw a modest flowering of collections of dance music in Germany. In this class we will focus on dance music by the early Baroque composers/arrangers Michael Praetorius and Johann Hermann Schein. Praetorius’ seminal work, Terpischore (1612), contains over 300 dances, including sprightly courantes, bourrées, galliards, and other favorites of the French court. Schein’s Banchetto musicale (1617) continues the tradition with grave Paduanas and measured Almans. Time permitting, we’ll explore the dance repertories of the generations immediately before and after Praetorius and Schein.

Schhhhh: Schütz, Schein, and Scheidt with Patricia Petersen

For intermediate and up recorders.

Class Description

Heinrich Schütz, Johann Hermann Schein, and Samuel Scheidt were the preeminent composers of the first half of the 17th century in Germany. Influenced by the nascent Italian baroque style, together they explored most of the genres of the day: polychoral works on a grand scale, elaborate canzonas, gorgeous madrigals, invigorating dance suites, and even drinking songs. We’ll look at the similarities and differences among these contemporaries, and explore their various sacred and secular repertoires.

Soldiers of the Reformation with Mary Springfels

For intermediate viols at A=415.

Class Description

Martin Luther (1483-1546), the great architect of the Protestant Reformation, was himself a great music-lover. As a student, he and his pals played for pocket change. Luther was not just an avid player; he considered congregational singing to be central to his new liturgy. While Ludwig Senfl wasn't an official part of the Protestant revolution, he followed the movement with great interest. Among the earliest Protestant composers were Thomas Stoltzer (1480-1526), Johann Walter (1496-1570), and Caspar Othmayr (1515-1553). We will explore their compositions.

Bach Chorales and Chorale Preludes with Arnie Tanimoto

For advanced viols at A=415.

Class Description

Bach’s chorales offer a perfect opportunity to practice "speaking" with the bow! We’ll explore the possibilities for phrasing and speaking with these chorale texts with the bow in their simplest form before tracing their transformation into the rich textures of chorale preludes.

Viol Consort: Frescobaldi and Friends with Rosamund Morley

For upper intermediate to advanced viols.

Class Description

In the early 17th century a huge number of canzonas were composed and published, but few composers offered such variety within the form as Girolamo Frescobaldi. His ensemble canzonas challenge and delight players with their sectional variety, sudden flights of virtuosic fancy, and occasional beautiful folk melodies. We’ll explore this repertoire in the company of the music of some of his contemporaries such as Merula, the Gabrielis, and others. Please note that class pitch is A=440.

German Lute Sources from the 16th and Early 17th Centuries with Christopher Morrongiello

For lutes.

Class Description

A chronological survey of lute sources, styles, genres, and playing techniques in German-speaking lands in which participants will gain knowledge and understanding of the first publishers of lute tablatures in the early 16th century by Virdung (1511) and Schlick (1512), the pedagogical works of Judenkünig (c. 1515, 1523), Gerle (1532, 1546), and Hans Newsidler (1536), the Italianate styles of Gintzler (1547) and Bakfark (1565), and the idiosyncratic, virtuosic music of Melchior Newsidler (1566, 1574). Special attention will be given to Matthaeus Waissel’s treatise (1592) and the cosmopolitan early-seventeenth-century anthologies by Besard (1603) and Fuhrmann (1615).

Lute Topic class with Paul O'Dette

For lutes.

Class Description

Description coming soon.

Mixed Style Ornamentation with Peter Sykes

For harpsichord and other Baroque instruments. Pitch A440 and 415.

Class Description

German baroque musical style borrows from both French and Italian stylistic elements. This class will examine this feature through the lens of ornamentation. What are the differences between Italian and French ornamentation? How does one decide what style to use in a given situation? How may they be combined? Through examination of scores and study of treatises we will explore this fascinating stylistic mélange and gain understanding of its expressive possibilities in both written music and in improvised ornamentation.

Late Afternoon Class Period: 3:30 p.m. - 4:45 p.m.

Baroque Ensembles

For advanced treble and basso continuo players who are musically and technically prepared to explore challenging repertoire.

Class Description

Faculty will be drawn from the following: Aoki, Beckmann, Begley, Chen, Devine, Duryee, Lion, Lipkis, Hou, Owens; for voice, recorder, flute, oboe, bassoon, viol, violin, harpsichord, others. These one-to-a-part Baroque ensembles are for advanced treble and basso continuo players who are musically and technically prepared to explore challenging repertoire. Our first priority will be to provide advanced players with well-matched ensembles. If there are more players of treble instruments than of continuo, one set of treble-line players in a trio sonata class may share a continuo section (and a coach) with another set, or some treble players may receive their second or third choices. Please list clear second and third choices. Indicate pitch: “440” or “415” or “either.”>

Making It Up: 14th- Early 16th c. Ensemble Collaboration Lab with Mark Rimple

For lutes and other early plucked instruments, singers, harpists, recorders, and vielles.

Class Description

This class will take examples from late medieval and early Renaissance monophonic song and dance literature as the basis for creativity and performance. Particularly from the late medieval period, little evidence exists from lutenists' ensemble participation- so what did they do? What do we know about the music itself? How can we make music today, regardless of this lack of evidence? We'll collaborate and explore a continuum of techniques and styles to explore a range of options with the aim of turning the act of interpretation into a joyous, creative act. Solo singers, harpists, recorder or vielle players are welcome to send in a piece of repertoire and join us in the exploration. Players may bring lutes (plectrum or Renaissance), gitterns, harps, psalteries, or citoles.

Early Notation: Let Us Pray with Patricia Petersen

Nach Englischer Art with Miyo Aoki

For upper-intermediate to advanced recorders.

Class Description

In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, several English musicians and composers left their home country to seek employment on the continent. Many of them found work in Germany, where they both absorbed the continental styles of music in fashion at the time and influenced other composers, some of whom produced pieces "nach Englischer Art" (after the English fashion). This class will explore music by English expats and their German counterparts who were influenced by the imported English music. Pieces by William Brade, Thomas Simpson, Valentin Haussmann, and others. For UI-A recorders

Renaissance Flute Consort: Musica Teutsch with Eric Haas

For Renaissance flutes.

Class Description

In homage to Hans Gerle’s 1532 treatise ‘Music Teutonicized’ we’ll play German and Swiss music for Renaissance flutes in 2, 3, and 4 parts.

We'll explore and enjoy the playful spirit and stylistic variety in music from Samuel Scheidt's 1621 collection: a rich mix of dances and consort pieces that blend German structure with French elegance and Italian flair. This class will focus on digging deeply into repertoire, with opportunities to delve into interpretation together.

"Been There, Done That" with Mary Springfels

For viols, lutes, vielles, and harps, pitch A=440

Class Description

Oswald von Wolkenstein (c1376-1445) was among the greatest poets and composers of the early German Renaissance. He was also a diplomat and something of a “soldier of fortune”. He used his life of extensive travel and high adventure as the subject matter for his songs. Wolkenstein also put clever new lyrics to well-known partsongs. We'll work on the performance of both these genres, including approaches to the accompaniment of vocal pieces.

Strictly Funck with Arnie Tanimoto

For intermediate to upper intermediate viols, pitch A=415.

Class Description

Lesser-known masterpieces for viol consort, David Funck’s Stricturæ viola-di gambicæ (1677) combine rich contrapuntal textures with the irresistible rhythms of late-17th-century dance. Stylish, surprising, and tailor-made for viols. For intermediate to upper intermediate viols.
