Dear lute friends, teachers, students, enthusiasts,
      April 15 is the application deadline for this summer's Baroque
   Academy
      at the Amherst Early Music Workshop, July 10Ã¢15 in New London,
      Connecticut. We have openings for lutenists, theorbists and baroque
      guitarists. Financial aid is available. Application info here.
   (Select
      "Baroque Academy for Instrumentalists. Registration fee waved for
      applications submitted and paid before May 1.)
      Baroque Academy is an auditioned, week-long, intensive workshop for
      professionals, pre-professionals and advanced amateurs.
      The central project for lute continuo players will be a staged
   Erismena
      by Cavalli in an original, seventeenth-century English singing
   version.
      The lutenists' major activity will be seventeenth-century Italianate
      recitative accompaniment, focussing both on ensemble and dramatic
      shading, through two daily rehearsal and coaching sessions.
      Baroque Academy participants also take part in coached chamber music
      ensembles and master classes.
      This summer's Baroque Academy also coincides with the Lute Society
   of
      America's summer workshop on the same campus. Baroque Academy
   students
      can take part in master classes with LSA faculty, and LSA attendees
      will be able to take part in the Cavalli. LSA is offering master
      classes with Nigel North and Xavier DÃaz-Latorre. I teach the
   Baroque
      Academy lute master class and lead the band for the Cavalli.
