Baroque Splendor Part I
Learn how Baroque music burst into vivid flame after the arrival of opera as a powerfully structured art form that soared and danced with skillful ornamentation and soulful elegance! The Baroque era was a time of exuberant innovation, expressive drama and intricate ornamentation. Churches were turned into grand theatrical spaces where music and art not only strove to capture the angelic harmonies of the angels but also the drama of the biblical stories and the triumphs and tribulations of humankind. Secular instrumental music broke free from its origins as music intended for dancing and became art enjoyed for pure, musical enjoyment, with as just as much lyrical grace, virtuosic agility and depth of expression as the finest opera singer.
