Dear all, Lucas Harris has asked me to post an announcement for this year's Baroque=20 Performance Institute, to take place in Oberlin, Ohio. I have participated= =20 in this class the last two summers and studied lute with Lucas, a terrific= =20 teacher and lutenist. If anyone is interested, please see the message below.
Regards, Annett ----------------------------------- Dear lutenists, The website for this coming summer=92s Oberlin BPI is now up and running: http://www.oberlin.edu/con/summer/bpi The theme this year is "La Serenissima: The Glories of Venice." In addition= =20 to the lute masterclass and faculty-coached Baroque ensembles, there are a= =20 number of other things to take advantage of: Baroque dance classes with=20 Julie Andrijeski, faculty concerts & lectures, continuo classes,=20 opportunities to accompany singers, and much more. Loaner instruments may=20 be available from the conservatory =96 please contact me for more=20 information. There are also scholarships for High School students. Note that the Lute Society of America seminar (27 June - 3 July) will=20 overlap with the second week of BPI and is less than an hour away at Case=20 Western Reserve University in Cleveland. An enterprising lutenist with two= =20 weeks to spend away from home this summer could attend the first week of=20 BPI and then continue on to the LSA seminar! Please contact me privately for more details about the lute part of the=20 course, or Anna Hoffman ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) about administrative=20 details. Many thanks! Lucas Harris --
