Description

Designed to investigate ways in which research in music informs musical performance. Examines numerous resources for performers which have resulted from the interaction of music scholarship and performance over the centuries and discusses how they can find practical application. Discussion of historical treatises, editions and editing as well as many detailed issues in performance practice research (including rhythmic interpretation, tempi, rubato, ornamentation, etc), will be supported by wide range of resources for performers including manuscripts, printed materials and sound recordings.
