Re: [Cambridge, MA]: Register NOW for Renaissance Music Ensemble class



If your department think, as your department clearly does, that
percussion in renaissance music is an "add on" you may like to spend
some time studying Syntagma Musicum Volumes I-II by Michael
Praetorius.  He spent almost as much time discussing and illustrating
percussion as he does with the wind section but obviously you do not.

I trust you have the appropriate authentic add on percussion
instruments for those players who are doubling?  Hint: a modern
tambourine is NOT a renaissance tambourine.

Kind regards,
Alan M. Watkins
