Program Notes :
|
Please take note of the following points concerning the appropriate Baroque music performance practice for this March :
- Most quarter notes in both the left and right hands should be played slightly detached
- Cadential trills are required in measures 7 and 15, even though not indicated by Jeremiah Clarke
- Also, in such final cadences, all dotted quarter notes should be double dotted, so that the eighth note following the dotted quarter note becomes a sixteenth note
- → For better clarity, the editor has included in this score a suggested realization for these two cadential trills (which English composers called shakes).
- Jeremiah Clarke, like all other composers of the Baroque era, did not provide any dynamics in his autograph score. Hence the dynamics given in this score are editorial.
