Quantz of the Week: 6 June 2010

 Is it time for the next week of Quantz already? 


OK, this will be the last group of pieces to focus exclusively on FLAT keys. Number 40 in Ab (if you are using the facsimile, this should show the first measure in A and then the first measure again in Ab), and number 29 in F, 2/4, for those still getting used to the idea that FLAT keys are fun, and, for those seeking to combine FLAT keys, embouchure flexibility, and variety of articulation, number 18 in F (Capricie III).


And, FYI, there WILL be a quiz on all of these Quantz pieces in flat keys at the boot camp. That means you might actually be asked to play them while Janet and I stare at you and scrutinize every finger motion and embouchure twitch. 

Not that we nitpick or anything . . .
