Reproduction: Some Thoughts on Recreating the Music of Bygone Ages
November 14, 2008
4 PM
Rare Book Room
Perkins Library, Duke University West Campus
John Pringle
In this lecture Pringle will drraw on his experiences to discuss the knotty question of “authenticity” in the performance of what has come to be called Early Music, with special reference to the instruments as tools, and also the different mindset that motivates Western musicians to create such a separate category in the first place.
