Baroque Splendor Part II

$18.00

Learn how orchestras grew into more powerful, robust ensembles with the additions of brass and woodwinds and how composers’ masterpieces started to become part of the social fabric; music that had been previously only available within palace walls became accessible to all classes, in places such as public gardens, taverns, and coffeehouses. As you journey through the powerful music of composers Handel, Rameau and Telemann, you will also learn how this era received the name “Baroque”! (teaser: this term was used in reference to very innovative, decadent and daring strains of music that caused an uproar in Paris!)
