SUMMARY:Amherst Early Music presents: Black Bodies and Black Voices
DESCRIPTION:AEM’s second in a Series of Free Lectures\nBlack Bodies and Black Voices: Gio. Buonaccorsi\, an enslaved Black singer at the Medici Court\, with Emily Wilbourne \nOn the 14th of October\, 1662\, the opera impresario Vettor Grimani Calergi wrote from Venice to Prince Mattias de’ Medici in Florence to discuss the singers for the upcoming opera season. He put in a particular plea in order that the Medici Cardinal’s black slave could participate. Above and beyond the moor’s “esteemed virtue” as a singer\, Grimani professed interest in the novelty of his character\, explaining that what perhaps in Florence had become “ordinary\,” would be “new\, and never before seen” on the Venetian stage. This singer is identifiable as Giovannino Buonaccorsi\, and his presence in Florence can be traced through a surprisingly rich archive of payment records\, libretti\, scores\, descriptions\, letters\, costume designs\, poetry\, as well as a remarkable double portrait: Baldassarre Franceschini’s Ritratto di suanatore di liuto con cantore moro (ca. 1662). In this paper I read this painting closely\, placing it alongside new archival documents to think about the ways in which black performance was normalized in mid-century Florence and the means by which blackness signified in relation to slavery and servitude\, shaping Giovannino’s access to performance opportunities on and offstage. \nClick here to learn more and register.

SUMMARY:Amherst Early Music online: In Nomine - The Viol PLayer's Favorite Chant
DESCRIPTION:Join us for AEM ONLINE classes each weekend! Register for any number of sessions – classes are $25 per session. Registration opens each Monday for the weekend classes! Click here for more information. \nIn Nomine: The Viol PLayer’s Favorite Chant with Rosamund Morley\nThe foundation of a uniquely English consort form is a beautiful chant melody hidden in the “Benedictus” movement of a 6-part Taverner mass. For 150 years\, from Taverner to Purcell\, many English composers wrote beautiful polyphonic music based on this chant. In this class\, less experienced viol players will have a chance to use the lovely In Nomine chant tune as the basis for a series of exercises applicable to all sizes of viol\, and\, technology permitting\, will experience the joys of playing the In Nomine line in a consort piece or two! Geared to: the fairly new viol player\, but all viols are welcome to join! Pitch: A=415.

SUMMARY:Amherst Early Music online: Ex Tempore Playing - A Gateway to Early Medieval Improvisation
DESCRIPTION:Join us for AEM ONLINE classes each weekend! Register for any number of sessions – classes are $25 per session. Registration opens each Monday for the weekend classes! Click here for more information. \nEx Tempore Playing: A Gateway to Early Medieval Improvisation with Norbert Rodenkirchen\nSurviving information about Medieval instrumental improvisation practice is rare and fragmentary. Based on a combination of intensive source studies and a personalized approach to Medieval monodic improvisation Norbert Rodenkirchen – Sequentia´s flautist – offers a practical workshop on „ad hoc“ modal invention. Besides presenting some easy new exercises Norbert will also introduce selected original didactical tools from Medieval cathedral schools. We will try out original modal patterns and memorization formulae from the 11th to 13th century to find a fresh and profound way to invent our own estampies and ductiae\, just like students in Medieval times. All musical materials will be presented in easy\, modern notation. The aim will be to explore our own melodic inventions deriving from these notes\, not just to play what is written. Open to: all instrumentalists are invited to join the workshop\, actively or as auditors. The content is geared toward players with a high level of facility on their instrument. Pitch: A = 440. Tuning: Norbert will be using Pythagorean tuning\, which has wide thirds and pure fifths. Participants will be muted but may wish to adjust their tuning since they will hear Norbert while playing.

SUMMARY:Amherst Early Music online: It's All About the Bass
DESCRIPTION:Join us for AEM ONLINE classes each weekend! Register for any number of sessions – classes are $25 per session. Registration opens each Monday for the weekend classes! Click here for more information. \nIt’s All About the Bass: Learn to add Drones and Chords to your Favorite Early Music Tunes with Tina Chancey\nWhether you’re playing a 13th-century cantiga\, a Renaissance dance tune by Arbeau\, or one of D’Urfey’s Pills to Purge Melancholy\, it always helps to fill out the piece by adding some chords and double stops. We viol players are lucky to have six strings\, a rounded bridge\, and and two and a half octave range—we’ve got lots of sounds at our disposal.\nEach different era of music has its own accompaniment techniques. In this class you’ll learn to play sustained and rhythmic drones whether you play the tune yourself or accompany a singer; to find different versions of the most common chords on your instrument and how to decide what chords to use\, to create arrangements with introductions and interludes that combine playing the tune and supporting chords\, and to create obbligato bass parts from a simple ground bass.

SUMMARY:Amherst Early Music online: Tantalizing Telemann Technicalities
DESCRIPTION:Join us for AEM ONLINE classes each weekend! Register for any number of sessions – classes are $25 per session. Registration opens each Monday for the weekend classes! Click here for more information. \nTantalizing Telemann Technicalities with Sarah Cantor \nWe will use the Telemann F Major duet as technical inspiration for this class. The high F’s give us opportunities to work on blowing and thumb position for high notes. The scale passages are perfect for finger coordination. The repeated sequences of 16th notes beg us to make tonguing syllable decisions. The long passages give us a chance to practice breath control. The cadential trills offer a chance to review trill fingerings and incorporate tasteful appoggiatura’s. Since technique should always serve the music and not the other way around\, we will make music playing the duet together.\nYou can download the music and play the duet with Sarah on her music-minus-one video here.

SUMMARY:Amherst Early Music online: A Cantus Firmus Connection
DESCRIPTION:Join us for AEM ONLINE classes each weekend! Register for any number of sessions – classes are $25 per session. Registration opens each Monday for the weekend classes! Click here for more information. \nA Cantus Firmus Connection for Viols and Friends of Viols with John Mark Rozendaal\nIn the 16th century\, viol-playing musicians cultivated improvisation (the fast method of composition)\, and composition (the slow approach to improvisation) by dividing the breves of a slow-moving cantus firmus into various rhythms\, and using those rhythms to cast harmonizing melodies over and under the subject to create expressive rhetorical statements and impressive contrapuntal structures.\nIn this class we will look at two distinct repertoires that actually involve the same musical materials and techniques to create quite different affects: the Recercadas of Diego Ortiz based on La Spagna; and the English In nomine as practiced by William Byrd and his forebears. Ortiz’s compositions are offered as examples for students of improvisation. The In nomine was an exercise in composition. Both genres also served as exercises in performing musicianship\, which is how we will be using them.

Click here for more information. \nThe Curious Case of the Loeillet Recorder Duets: What Makes a Duet Good? with Gwyn Roberts\nJean-Baptiste Loeillet de Gant published his Opus 1 around 1710 as a set of 12 sonatas for recorder and continuo. Shortly thereafter\, those sonatas reappeared as recorder duets\, with a new second recorder part quite different from the original continuo line.\nWe’ll sample both versions\, consider what changed to make the duets work better\, and tackle the pesky mystery of all of those composers named Loeillet.
