Practice-based research  Videos

This video features Claudio Merulo's Toccata prima (1604) and my experimentation with 'Diruta fingerings', which involve not using the thumb in the right hand (except for octaves). Additionally, I am exploring the technique of repeating tied notes, as suggested by Diruta and Frescobaldi.

This video features Merulo's canzona la Rosa with 'Diruta fingerings', without using the thumb in the right hand (except for octaves) and repeating tied notes, as suggested by Diruta and Frescobaldi.
