Baroque Music with all the corrections

Harpsichord spinet Sackbuts viol and harp
Wind- flute, oboe bassoon recorder, 
Baroque --> barocco --> bizarre 
Overly exaggerated and ornamented 
Signing is very opera like and opera appeared in this era of music 
Every piece of music is different like an assortment of sweets 
Tension and release, so it builds up and then it's resolved and it calms down abit 
The music has dignity and is elegant and very elaborate
Mordents and grace notes. 
1600-1750's 
It involves- western and classical music 
Composers;
(1643-1704) Marc Antoine carpentier 
(1685-1750) johann Sebastian bach 
(1659-1695) Henry Purcell 
(1685-1759) George Friderick Handel 
Ornamented- frilly, lots of twiddly things and additional notes, only to make the music more impressive.
Harpsichord- the strings are plucked in side the body, twangy sound, not hammers like a piano
Lots of string instruments. Cello. Viola. Violin. 
Organ.
Flutes. 
Trumpets. Horns. 
Smaller groups of instruments - CHAMBER MUSIC - music for a small group as entertainment. LIVE
