Another great little video from Les Musiciens de Saint-Julien, this time about decorating repeats so music doesn't sound boring. They are particularly concerned with music of the baroque and earlier (I came across them because of their recorder performances) but lots of music has repeating sections so there is probably something here of more general interest. Anyway, it's only 10 minutes.

I have started to learn an early piano sonata by Haydn and every part of it is played through twice. Since it is still only about 75% learned I'm not doing any of the repeats but once it becomes fluent I suspect that each time it is played there will be subtle differences whether or not those repeats are included. One of my piano teacher's sayings...."it will be different every time you play it".

I enjoyed that a great deal. Thank you! I found the horses extremely distracting though...  They're absolutely beautiful. I also thought the flute was beautiful - not just the sound of it - but its physical appearance. I really like how they explained repetition because I'd started to ask myself - Why repeat? And they've answered some of it for me. Great vid! Worth watching - several times. |

This is something I want to get to grips with. I like early piano sonatas of the period where both halves of each movement were repeated. I also have the 36 Telemann keyboard fantasias, in each of which an entire movement is repeated!
