Baroque music is not be feared

Hohenzolern@aol.com | LA | 08/13/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Musics of the Baroque Era is perhaps the most general of classical music. You can always find a vast quantity of baroque music in any classical store. Of course, the largest works composed by Mr. J.S. Bach. Here is his sinfonia and Arrival from the Queen of Sheba. The Arrival is very popular. Its allegro measure of strings is very festive, eventhough it is supposed to be the re-telling of the Solomon and Sheba encounter in the Bible. The works of other Baroque masters can be found here such as Handel and Gluck. The Dance of the Blessed Spirits is a magnificent piece. These are all famous Baroque works. If you're a beginner of classical music, and wish to hear Baroque, this cd is a good start-up cd."
