Viola da Gamba Tutorial No. 16: French Ornaments Pt. IV - The Port-de-voix

Find out more at Donate here =► Welcome to gamba tutorial no. 16. This is the fourth in my sub-series of videos focusing on the basics of French Baroque ornamentation. In this part, I talk about the port de voix or appoggiatura. Because there are various approaches to its performance, I've organised the video into two halves - the basic approach and the more in-depth approach. If you'd like to commission a video, you can do so if you subscribe to my Patreon account. Subscribing grants you access to my exclusive 'music-minus-one' collection - a series of videos and audio files of consort music with missing parts. This allows you to play along with a consort or baroque ensemble while filling in a missing part. All pieces are available at 415Hz and 440Hz and membership lets you commission either one tutorial video or one music-minus-one video per month.
