Re: [Finale] Se Piace in Baroque music

Kim, Se piace means simply if you want (if it pleases you) and usually refers (at least in Telemann's opus) to an optional doubling of the violin part(s) by oboe(s) or flute(s). I don't think I've ever seen a se piace part as an _additional_ part. Eric

[Finale] Se Piace in Baroque music

Good Day: I see this expression used on a lot of instrumental parts in the baroque. Does it mean, extra or optional part? Thanks! -- Kim Patrick Clow Early Music enthusiasts think outside the Bachs! ___ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu
