Aims |
|
|
1. To increase awareness of, and ability to make judgements on, principles of historical performance practice. 2. To develop understanding of the theory involved in tuning decisions, particularly historical tuning systems, and apply to their own performance development. 3. To develop practice methods for progressing technical areas for performance. 4. To increase awareness of relation between technique and repertoire choices. |

Syllabus |
|
|
The syllabus consists of two strands, each of which are organised around the needs and prior experience of students. Individual lessons and group sessions will develop students' technical skills on their own instrument through an appropriate choice of repertoire and development of practice methods. Group sessions/online activities will also develop students' listening skills through hands-on experience of understanding of historical tuning systems, technical practice on instruments, and learning the basics of historical informed performance. |
