  1. Day 2 1/2 at a baroque music summer course. I’m in two orchestras on bassoon (Telemann and Lully), in three chambermusic groups as a singer (Händel, Schütz and Campra), choir (madrigals) and a dance class where we’re learning a gavotte. Oh, and of course voice and bassoon lessons. Days consist of running around and forgetting my stuff if various classrooms. I’m exhausted and having a blast!

  2. I’m going to a baroque music summer course in July, mostly to sing but also to play baroque bassoon. Got assigned to two orchestras, one is playing parts from Lully’s Atus, the other a Telemann ouverture suite. Exactly what I like! Getting used to baroque bassoon again after playing modern for all of April & May. Ordered a couple new reeds in a slight panic. Summer course preparations just as usual. :D

  4. I think maybe some of you interested in Baroque music may not know that this music was not really intended to be played with equal temperament. N.B. If you learned that Bach invented equal temperament, that is flat out wrong.
    It's a complex subject but these two videos are good explaining it.
