Baroque

Baroque music is a style of European classical music composed from approximately 1600 to 1750. It is characterized by highly ornate and often complex musical textures and forms, as well as frequent use of counterpoint, fugues, and continuo. The Baroque style originated in Italy and spread throughout Europe, with composers such as Bach, Vivaldi, Handel, Corelli, and Telemann. Baroque music is often characterized by its use of rich harmonies and complex musical forms, as well as its focus on elaborate ornamentation. The style also often features an abundance of ornamentation, such as runs, trills, and cadences. Baroque music is often highly expressive and often contains religious and spiritual themes.
