What baroque music did you listen to today...

[JHC]

I have just d/l and yet to burn "The 24" by Rosalyn Tureck, to night perhaps

Hi Hawk and thanks for that video link with the natural trumpet; I never even knew there was such an instrument! :shake: At first, it even looked to me a little bit like a trombone vis a vis its length, but then I noticed there weren't any valves. Is this why it is called a natural trumpet? Anyway, it was a wonderful performance of a beautiful piece. :angel::trp:

 

[JHC]

Steve, this is a good starting point but be warned it will lead to years of reading http://www.classical.net/music/rep/hip.php and enjoyment.

 

[White Knight]

Ok Colin, I am duly forewarned. Thanks.

Try this free suite of applications Colin, download youtube video or just strip the audio to MP3, also convert most video and audio formats to other formats including those for mobiles,

Hi folks, I am glad you liked the videos. Steve I love the Vivaldi, and Hawk the trumpet conceto by Torelli is great.

Now I want to listen to some more.

Thanks for the Handel links... I always enjoy his work and Have played the full Oratorio "The Messiah" a number of times in my life ( organ as only instrument and with full orchestra also). so much of his work is a great asset for many aspects of the Church/concert organist repertories

 

[marval]

Thank you for the Handel Hawk, lovely music and it was good to see the dances as well.

Here is some lovely baroque choral music by Francisco López Capillas. I find it beautiful to listen to.

JOHANN LUDWIG BACH - Motets for 8 voices and basso continuo.

Well this music grabbed me and held me captive from begining to end!
Unsere Trübsal ~from a different recording but just as beautiful and captivating. Previous to this vocal music was not interesting~another door opens

Nice motet Hawk. I always enjoy those vocal challeging compositions
