18th Century Continuo Playing for Cembalo

In recent years, efforts to achieve interpretations that do justice to

the criteria of `historical performance practice` have become de

rigeur in the world of early music. Not only has this affected the

ionstruments and performance techniques used by soloists, it also

impinges on the `musical foundation`: the accompaniment.

In his figured bass tutor Jesper Boje Christensen, a teacher at the

Schola Cantorum in Basle, shows readers how to produce stylistically

accurate figured bass realizations, wether written beforehand or

improvised in performance. He hastaken an unusual approach: the

various figured bass manuals of the early eighteenth century, by

Dandrieu, St. Lambert, Heinichen, Telemann and others, are clearly

organized and logically structured and contain practical tips for

playing from a figured bass. Christensen has put these sources

together and added comments and written-out examples of his own.

In this way his tutor not only shows how musicians played at the time,

but takes a further step of crucial importance: it succinctly

summarizes the way figured bass was taught and studied, thereby

creating models for players today.
