Product Description
Review
Haynes always writes as the insider performer, and his writing is fresh and direct...likely to be enjoyed by most musicians. (David Ledbetter, British Clavichord Society )
Bruce's arguments are rich, not obvious, and very convincing. Read Bruce's ideas: applaud, question, be infuriated. But you will never think about early music as you did before. (Clifford Bartlett, Early Music Review )
Product Description
Part history, part explanation of early music, this book also plays devil's advocate, criticizing current practices and urging experimentation. Haynes, a veteran of the movement, describes a vision of the future that involves improvisation, rhetorical expression, and composition. Written for musicians and non-musicians alike.
