Book Reviews of Baroque Music: Style and Performance: A Handbook
Book Review: Eye Opening
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this as a text to a class on Baroque Performance Practice. Along with brilliant lectures from my Professor Dr. Timothy Howard, this book was exactly what it took to bring a rounded, informed, and accurate base on which to interpret my Baroque repetoire. Highly recommend, the beginning and end of Baroque interpretation.
