The History of Music, 2nd Edition: The Baroque Era

Baroque music, which flourished between the years 1600 and 1750, expanded the size, range, and complexity of instrumental performance while also firmly establishing opera as a musical genre. In this program, the canzone, suite, sonata, concerto grosso, concerto, toccata, prelude and fugue, chorale prelude, mass, oratorio, and opera are examined. The harpsichord is spotlighted as an iconic Baroque instrument. And pivotal figures such as Claudio Monteverdi, Giovanni Gabrieli, Jean-Baptiste Lully, Domenico Scarlatti, Antonio Vivaldi, George Frideric Handel, and Johann Sebastian Bach are singled out. A Discovery Channel Production. (27 minutes)
