French flutists such as Philbert and Descoteaux were renowned for their enchanting interpretations of airs de cour in the court of Louis XIV. Teddie will guide you through the history, characteristics, and performance techniques of this genre, and explain how studying such music will enlighten and deepen one's understanding of French baroque music as a whole.
