From Hotteterre to Hotter Jazz

Presented by Santa Cruz Baroque Festival

Baroque music theorist Jacques-Martin Hotteterre

Santa Cruz Baroque Festival's 2nd concert of our 49th season "Transformations"
From Hotteterre to Hotter Jazz
Sunday, Feb. 27, 5pm
Peace United Church, 900 High St., Santa Cruz, CA

Jacques-Martin Hotteterre (1674-1763), the foremost member of the great French dynasty of renowned Baroque woodwind instrument makers, players and composers, told the world his secrets on how to play the wooden flute (France’s most popular instrument) as well as how to improvise successfully in his 1707 Opus 1 treatise.

Now three centuries later, with Hotter Jazz as the music of our own time, we apply Hotteterre’s improvisational ideas creatively in jazz style, working from similar foundations.
