Fundamentals of Harpsichord Playing and Repertoire

June 23 - 27, 2008

PRESENTED BY:  EDWARD PARMENTIER

In these workshops attention is given to the musical needs of each participant. Each player is taught in such a way as to bring them forward from the level of experience they individually have had. Harpsichordists, organists, and pianists of intermediate and advanced levels are invited. Each player is guaranteed a harpsichord to practice on, either alone or shared with only one other person. Those bringing an instrument are guaranteed a locked, air-conditioned room for it, with exclusive access, plus help moving it in and out.

The workshop class schedule is from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. (with breaks) at the University of Michigan School of Music, Theatre & Dance. Each workshop will end at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. Please note that graduate level credit is available. Please contact the Adult Summer Programs Office for additional information. Ann Arbor is 30 minutes from Detroit Metropolitan Airport; limo and taxi service are readily available. Housing is also available in University dormitories at an additional cost.
