One to Three Day Residencies
Students and faculty have been overwhelmingly positive about residencies. Giving students the opportunity to play some of the instruments of the Baroque and Classical eras opens up new insights. Lectures focus on how to play (and listen) in 18th-century style, based on method books of the time, such as those by Quantz, C.P.E. Bach, and Leopold Mozart.
