Harpsichord Method - Volume 2

By: Mento, Frank

Volume 2 of 10This volume is a transitory phase. It contains less pages, but there is more to do. We reinforce the skills acquired in Volume 1, and prepare the pupil to play more important pieces. We introduce the English virginalists and their ornamentation. The pupil is going to play pieces where each hand plays several notes. We begin a study of Major scales in historical fingerings, introduce historical exercises, and the concept of notes in gales. We also begin a study of Basso Continuo and Diminutions.Contents: Bourr e Johann KriegerLocalizing NotesMenuet Georg Friedrich HandelRepeated NotesA new Irish Tune Henry PurcellExercise Friedrich Wilhelm MarpurgLocalizing NotesBasso ContinuoRameau's Ornaments for this MinuetMenuet Jean-Philippe RameauDeux Pr ludes Jacques Hotteterre, le RomainLocalizing NotesBasso ContinuoPrelude Henry PurcellProgr s de tierces en montant Fran ois CouperinBasso ContinuoAlmaine AnonymousDeux Pr ludes Jacques Hotteterre, le RomainBasso ContinuoDiminutions and ImprovizationLes Folies d'Espagne Michel CorretteTriads
