British harpsichordist and harpsichord builder Colin Booth also writes about music and performance. This book discusses performance options which include practices known in the Baroque era but may be misrepresented in modern notation. For a Baroque musician, performance depended upon conventions which were subsequently forgotten by later generations. Later notation became more complicated on the page, attempting to specify detail rather than to rely on unstated but common performance practices. This book explores performance solutions for all Baroque composers of keyboard music, mostly for harpsichord. 349 pages, hardbound.
