AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Covers the Italian Baroque period (1600-1730). Borgir rejects the notion that the basso continuo line is doubled by bass instruments and shows how these have an independent musical function in ensemble music. He untangles their confusing terminology and also explores the unexpected uses of he large lutes. Italian continuo practice included elaborate training in improvisation described in detail here for the first time.Borgir, Tharald is the author of 'The Performance of the Basso Continuo in Italian Baroque Music (Studies in music)', published 2010 under ISBN 9780835719124 and ISBN 083571912X.
