Generalbass-Compendium / Compendium of the basso continuo
Hans-Peter Weber
The Compendium of the Basso Continuo is a script for the basics of basso continuo practice first presented in 1997. Since then, It has been intensively used by generations of students at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis for aural training.
Its compact didactic structure has also made it well known and sought after outside Basel. In October 2018 the original handwritten script has been translated and edited and is now available in a synoptic version in German/English. Access is free of charge and barrier-free. You can use the book yourself and share it with others, only changes are not allowed.
