N.B. at the end of this document readers can download the music examples.

Lambert Smit N.B. In this paper 18 th ­century terms are in italics. Introduction Bias and acquired preferences sometimes cloud people’s views. Modern musicians’ fondness of their own instruments sometimes obstructs a clear view of the history of each single instrument. Some instrumentalists want to defend the territory of their own instrument or to enlarge 1 it. However, in the 18 th century specialization in one instrument, as is the custom today, was unknown. 2 Names of instruments in modern ‘Urtext’ editions can be misleading: in the Neue Bach Ausgabe the due Fiauti d’ Echo in Bach’s score of Concerto 4 .to (BWV 1049) are interpreted as ‘Flauto dolce’ (=recorder, Blockflöte, flûte à bec), whereas a Fiauto d’ Echo was actually a kind of double recorder, consisting of two recorders, one loud and one soft. (see internet and Bachs Orchestermusik by S. Rampe & D. Sackmann, p. 279­280). 1 The bassoon specialist Konrad Brandt, however, argues against the habit of introducing a bassoon in every movement in Bach’s church music where oboes are played (the theory ‘wo Oboen, da auch Fagott’) Bach­Jahrbuch '68.

All the members of the 17th century, that the capabilities of the gamba as a solo instrument were most fully realised, of the viol family were similarly played in an upright position. The viola da gamba seems to especially in the works of Marin Marais and Antoine Forqueray (see below, CD7–13). have descended more directly from the medieval fiddle (known during the Middle Ages and early Born in London, John Dowland (1563–1626) became one of the most celebrated English Renaissance by such names as ffythele, ffidil, fiele or fithele) than the violin, but it is clear that composers of his day.

  • PROGRAM NOTES: Marin Marais
    PROGRAM NOTES: Marin Marais (1656-1728) established himself as a virtuoso of the viola da gamba at a young age, earning the opportunity to study gamba with Monsieur de Saint Colombe and composition with Jean-Baptiste Lully. Marais became one of the most prolific composers of bass viola da gamba repertoire. Marais approached composition differently than his predecessors. Rather than leaving ornamentation to the discretion of the performer, Marais created his own system of symbols depicting specific graces. His desire to have complete control over every gesture stemmed from his studies with Lully, a composer who was also notorious for adding precise ornamentation instructions. La Gamme en forme d’un petit Opera (1723) is one of several trio sonatas Marais composed for violin, viola da gamba, and harpsichord. Each instrumental part in this piece is equally challenging, creating a contrast of virtuosic lines throughout each voice. The title “a scale in the form of a petit opera” suggests that Marais’ goal through this composition was to depict the same drama and variation as a short opera. Beginning in the key of C Major, Marais travels through each step of the scale to create these various operatic scenes. Unlike Marais’ earlier works, this piece has very few instructions on where to ornament. Therefore, the biggest challenge as a performer is finding ways to embellish nuances in order to depict the vast amounts of character changes that take place in this enormous work. Because the piece was composed in the last year of his life, Marais probable assumed anyone performing it would have studied his earlier music and would therefore understand the style of ornamentation he demands.

M. Music Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2009 Document Committee: Approved By James Pyne, Co-Advisor ______________________ Co-Advisor Lois Rosow, Co-Advisor ______________________ Paul Robinson Co-Advisor Copyright by Antoine Terrell Clark 2009 Abstract Late Baroque works for string instruments are presented in performing editions for clarinet and piano: Giuseppe Tartini, Sonata in G Minor for Violin, and Violoncello or Harpsichord, op.1, no. 10, “Didone abbandonata”; Georg Philipp Telemann, Sonata in G Minor for Violin and Harpsichord, Twv 41:g1, and Sonata in D Major for Solo Viola da Gamba, Twv 40:1; Marin Marais, Les Folies d’ Espagne from Pièces de viole , Book 2; and Johann Sebastian Bach, Violoncello Suite No.1, BWV 1007. Understanding the capabilities of the string instruments is essential for sensitively translating the music to a clarinet idiom. Transcription issues confronted in creating this edition include matters of performance practice, range, notational inconsistencies in the sources, and instrumental idiom. ii Acknowledgements Special thanks is given to the following people for their assistance with my document: my doctoral committee members, Professors James Pyne, whose excellent clarinet instruction and knowledge enhanced my performance and interpretation of these works; Lois Rosow, whose patience, knowledge, and editorial wonders guided me in the creation of this document; and Paul Robinson and Robert Sorton, for helpful conversations about baroque music; Professor Kia-Hui Tan, for providing insight into baroque violin performance practice; David F.

He was on the jury of the ‘Festival estival de Paris’ harpsichord competition in September 1979 which I entered. Afterwards he complimented me on my performances of Scarlatti and Baumgartner. He accepted me as a guest student at the Sweelinck Conservatorium for the academic year 1980-81. Briefly describe your level of musical education when you started lessons with Gustav Leonhardt. How many years had you studied an early keyboard instrument? What academic qualifications did you have, if any? I graduated with my B Mus from Trinity College Dublin in 1973.
