Four Tuesdays: 1/21, 1/28, 2/4, 2/11, 2:30-3:30 PM CT (3:30 ET, 1:30 CT, 12:30 PT)

From the hinge of the sun’s rising/ To the uttermost bounds of the earth.

So begins the evocative text of A solis ortus cardine, a poem written in the fifth century. The poem’s sweep is echoed by the distance it has traveled: For centuries, composers have placed its verses as the center of works both spare and elaborate. In this live, four-week Zoom course, we’ll explore diverse settings of A solis ortus cardine, beginning with plainchant melody, then following the tune as it travels through time and space. Get to know this exquisite hymn while tackling important questions of articulation, tempo, phrasing, breathing, and more.

Playalong sound files are included, and are yours to keep.

This course is best suited to recorder players whose skills are at least intermediate.

Upon purchase, you’ll receive a link to download a pdf “ticket” that includes a Zoom link. The cost of the complete course is $98, which includes all four live sessions lasting approximately one hour each, plus playalong files. Each live session will be recorded and will be available for participant review for a limited time.
