Re: [Finale] Percussion and Baroque Music (Improvised or not)

[Chuck Israels]

I once attended a party of musicians in NY where the music was provided by a cellist and accordionist playing mostly Baroque music.  It changed my perception of the accordion.  the players were superb, and the "breathing" of the accordion gave the continuo parts a kind of life that was different from the usual harpsichord sound, but certainly no less beautiful.  Always ready for good surprises.

Not as much as the use of Accordion or Bagpipes would be. Nah - it depends on how used, as always. cd -- http://www.livejournal.com/users/dershem/# _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale -- Kim Patrick Clow "There's really only two types of music: good and bad." ~ Rossini _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale Chuck Israels 230 North Garden Terrace Bellingham, WA 98225-5836 phone (360) 671-3402 fax (360) 676-6055 www.chuckisraels.com
