Description

- Introduction to tablature and continuo playing
- Bass clef in lute tuning
- Technique/sound formation on 'low tension' instruments

Overview of the main instruments:
19th century guitar (primary, third, multi-string guitar), vihuela, baroque guitar, renaissance lute, baroque lute, arciliuto, chitarrone. The greatest challenge when playing these historical instruments, apart from learning historical notation (tablatures, continuo/bass clef notation) and the different tunings and scales, is dealing with a lower string tension compared to the modern concert guitar and a correspondingly light construction, which is common to all historical plucked instruments.

- Solo and chamber music repertoire from the 15th-19th centuries
- Holistic technique and movement training to develop a universal, flexible playing ability

Literary studies

The aim is to break down the barriers between modern and historical playing practice and to help students develop their own profile. The resulting high level of artistic flexibility opens up a broader field of professional activity for graduates.
