Musique Ancienne - Instruments Et Imagination /music of the Past - Instruments And Imagination Actes Des Rencontres Internationales Harmoniques 2004/ Proceedings of the 'harmoniques' International Congress 2004

This volume presents the proceedings of the second International Congress organised in Lausanne by the harmoniques Foundation and held in the Spring of 2004. The papers were given by experts on brass and stringed keyboard instruments. The emphasis was on a variety of historical instrument-making traditions and on the history of the revival of the use of early instruments. The contributions not only included detailed discussions regarding the parameters of performance practice and the use of historical instruments but also about the inspiration given by some of the leading revivalists in these fields. In many cases the contributors placed a special focus on the performance of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach.Latcham, Michael is the author of 'Musique Ancienne - Instruments Et Imagination /music of the Past - Instruments And Imagination Actes Des Rencontres Internationales Harmoniques 2004/ Proceedings of the 'harmoniques' International Congress 2004', published 2006 under ISBN 9780820483702 and ISBN 0820483702.
