Baroque music refers to the period of Western classical music from approximately 1600 to 1750. The Baroque period saw the development of functional tonality, new techniques of instrument playing and musical notation. Opera as a musical genre became established during this time, and the range and complexity of instrumental playing also expanded during this period. This collection focuses on the instrumental music of this period. No survey of the Baroque would be complete without the music of JS Bach, whose Brandenburg Concertos are generally regarded as the pinnacle of Baroque music. Vivaldi's vibrant concertos show the exciting range of instrumental colours that flourished during this period, contrasting with the orchestral panache of Handel's robust Water Music. From classical favourites such as Pachelbel's Canon and Albinoni's Adagio, to Concerti grossi by composers as diverse as Corelli, Handel, Locatelli and Geminiani, this set is a perfect compilation of works from this most fascinating era.

Álbum abarca todos los géneros Música clásica y Música barroca.
