La flauta traversa moderna y la Música Barroca. Aspectos contextuales e interpretativos

Abstract

Baroque music performance, through the Historically Informed Performance, has tended to direct their efforts to the repertoire execution on historic instruments, considering contextual issues that determined the style of the time; it is demonstrable that the information collected by this movement from the second half of the twentieth century could be perfectly assimilated by any modern instrument, and particularly by the Boehm flute. We shall observe three main sections: the first focused on critical and proactive view, on aspects involved in training, teaching, outreach and representation of flute baroque music at the local level. The second will focus on the technical conception of the instrument in primary sources, both the Baroque period and modernity. The third has some of the typical performing elements of Baroque musical practice from different sources, and how these elements can be related on modern flute execution, providing tools for the musician to enrich their daily practice, in addition to opening some questions that will expand the understanding of the topic
