Summer School in Berlin-Tiergarten

Robert Dow (1553-1588) started copying music into his partbooks around 1581. They are a unique source of Tudor music in many respects. Dow was a trained calligrapher and wrote down the music very clear and easy to read. He assembled pieces by the most prominent composers of his time: William Byrd, Alfonso Ferrabosco, Robert Parsons, Thomas Tallis, Christopher Tye, Robert White and many others.

Most pieces are 5-part vocal music but obviously music from partbooks was needed by instrumental consort players in a private setting. The first instrument that comes to mind is the viol, but also flutes and recorders are well suited.

As always we provide the music some month before, facsimile and/or modern notation. You should be able to read g, f, and c-clefs.There are consort of matched recorders (17 instruments after the consort instruments in Vienna), flutes and viols (2Tr, 2T, 2 B after Jaye) which we'll be using.
