A proper study of the Baroque, or any classical period is really beyond the ability of a couple posts here. So instead of trying to really overwhelm anyone I've put together a mixture of a few of the most recognizable classical pieces from the era and a couple of less commonly recalled composers. The period has always been one of my favorites from an aspect of history due to their singular and deep emotional connections.For those of you interested, feel free to contact me through the forums or in comments here and I can recommend a more in depth reading list. Also if there is a positive response I may do a focus on Chopin later on.
