“What are these baroque articulation rules all about?” “My tongue gets confused!” “How can you tongue with R??” – If you’re wondering about any of the above, this fun yet informative boot camp will break it all down and help demystify baroque articulation!
The workshop will start by introducing the most frequent tongue strokes used in baroque articulation and their applications. We will then use familiar patterns such as scales and arpeggios as a playground to explore and practice doing varied tongue strokes as part of your musical language.
Whether you’re a modern flutist curious about expanding your interpretation palette, or a baroque player looking to deepen your foundation, you’ll leave with a clear toolkit you can use straight away. No prior knowledge of baroque practice is needed — just your flute and a willingness to explore!
