Performing Baroque Music

Mary Cyr provides here the tools needed to understand and interpret musical evidence from the baroque era. Scores for eleven works, many reproduced in facsimile, are included for close study. Readers will find new material on continuo playing, as well as extensive treatment of singing and French music. The book is a concise guide to reference materials in the field of baroque performance practice. First published by Ashgate in 1992 and having been out of print for some years, this title is now available as a print on demand title.
