Baroque pop, baroque rock or English baroque, often used interchangeably with chamber pop/rock, is a style of music originated in the mid-1960s that brought elements of classical music into the writing and recording of rock 'n' roll songs. Practitioners of the style utilized instrumentation not traditional to rock such as harpsichord, oboe, cello and French horn. Baroque pop's highest popularity occurred before the introduction of the synthesizer or sampler, so real instruments are heard on the recordings, usually played by session musicians. Baroque pop may be distinguished from progressive rock, which also uses classical instrumentation, by its generally simpler song structures closer to standard pop song writing, and also by its more mainstream lyrical content as opposed to the generally conceptual lyrics associated with later progressive rock. Baroque pop is similar to sunshine pop in subject matter, but with a darker and more melodramatic edge.

Marco Uccellini (ca. 1603-1680) The famous "Aria quinta sopra la Bergamasca" (Libro terzo, Venetia 1642) in a version for two continuo instruments in C-major (original in D-major, for 2 violins and basso continuo) realized on a baroque cello (viol. 1 and / or 2) and a small theorbo in d (viol. 1 or 2, the basso ostinato and some continuo chords). As it it a lot of work for only two people, other musicians are kindly invited to join us, creating a more soundful version for this improvisation project. Live recital of the Duo Continuo, Heilig-Geist-Kirche Teupitz/Germany, 2008/july/26th. THANK YOU for all HELPFUL ratings and critiques, considering, a bloody beginner with only few lessons on the theorbo presumes to mess with this masterpiece ;-))) , this is our first experiment with a camrecorder, sorry for the insufficient technical quality (and for one rough cat tune of the cello ;-)) , just an unpolished live recording. Theorbo in d (R. Lechner 2007, corpus after Burkholtzer, metalfree strings of nylgut), Baroque Cello (Chr. Eulenhaupt 2005, after Stradivari 1730, gut strings) The Bergamasca from Italy (besides others, eg the Folia from Spain) was one of the greatest hits of the pop music (Popmusik) of the 16./17. cent. the scheme of chords of the Bergamasca is the basic prinziple of the candenza through the baroque and the classic/romantic periodes also to the serious and pop music of our days. with simple words: Bergamasca (C-major) develops on the bass line: ||: CC | FF <b>...</b>

Download this music at alexandrahamer.bandcamp.com There's no minimum price so you can even have it for free if you want! (200 free downloads are available per month). A voyage out of London began in sombre mood for while docked on the Thames, we gave our assistance to the metropolitan police in the retrieval of a poor woman who had drowned herself that previous night. This bedraggled Ophelia lay upon our deck for a short time - such a delicate and lonely creature. We were later informed that her name was Lizzie Green and that she had fallen on hard times having grown too old to earn money at her wretched profession. All that she had about her person was an old daguerreotype of her younger self, kissing her own reflection as if affection could only be got that way. ç§ã¯ç§ã®æªã翻訳ã®ããã®è¬ç½ªï¼ ãã®æ²ã¯"ãªã¸ã¼ã°ãªã¼ã³"ã§ãç§ãã¡ã¯ã­ã³ãã³ã®é°é¬±ãªæ°åã§åºèªãããæãã¯ãã ãºå·ã«ããã­ã³ã°ãããããæãã¯è­¦å¯ã女æ§ã®ä½ãåå¾å©ãã¦ããã彼女ã¯åã®æ©ã«èªåã溺ããããã¦ããã ãã®æ±ãããªãã£ã¼ãªã¢ã¯ãç§ãã¡ã®ããã­ã«ç­ãæé横ããã£ã¦ããã彼女ã¯ã¨ã¦ãå£ãããããå­¤ç¬ã«è¦ãããç§ãã¡ã¯ã彼女ã®ååã¯ãªã¸ã¼ã°ãªã¼ã³ããã彼女ã¯ãã¾ãã«ã彼女ã®æ²ããè·æ¥­ãããéã稼ãããã«ãå¤ãä¼ããããã ãã¹ã¦ã¯å½¼å¥³ãææãã¦å¤ããã²ã¬ãªã¿ã¤ãããã¾ãããããã¯ãç»åã彼女ã®ããã«è¥ã女æ§ãã彼女ã¯å½¼å¥³èªèº«ã®åå°ãã­ã¹ããããã¨ãå¯ä¸ã®æ¹æ³ã¯ææãåãåãããã«ãããå ´åã Je m'excuse pour ma mauvaise traduction: Cette chanson s'appelle "Lizzie Green" Nous avons navigué de Londres dans une <b>...</b>

These are 30 modern indie/alternative rock songs that give me hope in the music industry. Includes: indie rock/pop/folk, punk, alternative rock/metal, post rock, baroque pop, and electronica from 2000 - 2011. Make sure to check out my new "Best of Modern Indie/Alternative/Rock Songs 2000 - 2011" on my channel, it is much better than this first list. If you think the bands here have a better song or a song should be included, it might be in my other "Top 10" videos, I never recycle a song in my lists. Some bands were not included in here because they appear in my other videos. Also, this video is composed of all the leftover songs that didn't fit in my previous music compilation videos. So don't be like, "Whoa that song is totally random and makes me feel awkward." It is not random, it's from my media player. I feel that people shouldn't just listen to music based on what language they speak, music is universal, and there are foreign artists that make great music in this genre. This video is just an attempt to introduce people to music they never heard of. Comment/Like/Subscribe/Share if you enjoyed the selection!

The large sound of Fleet Foxes' self-described "baroque harmonic pop" comes to life through the amazing talents of director Sean Pecknold (lead vocalist Robin's brother), who crafts a claymation paean to the life-cycle of a forest inhabited by gnomes.

Hector Diaz, flute Partita in a minor for solo flute by Johann Sebastian Bach (BWV 1013) is a partita in 4 movements: Allemande Corrente (Courante) Sarabande Bourrée anglais As is the case with so many of JS Bach's chamber works, we know virtually nothing about the circumstances in which the Partita in A minor for unaccompanied flute, BWV 1013 was composed. It was probably written sometime during the early 1720s, during the last few years of Bach's tenure as kapellmeister at Cöthen (a job that gave him ample freedom to explore secular chamber music), and at any rate could not have been composed before leaving Weimar in 1717. Bach's other works for unaccompanied instruments (other than keyboard and lute) -- the Suites for solo cello, BWV 1007-1012 and the Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin, BWV 1001-1006 -- were all informed to one degree or another by his own skill as a string instrument performer (this is not to say that he was necessarily accomplished enough to perform them adequately; indeed, evidence indicates that he was not, and perhaps never tried). With the flute Partita, however, Bach was left almost entirely to his own ingenuity, as neither tradition nor personal familiarity could come into much play during the creation of so unlikely a work. It is a dance-suite proper in which each of the four most common species of the day -- allemande, courante, sarabande, and bourrée -- makes an appearance, and in which the same remarkable blend of actual tones and implied <b>...</b>

As I practice this movement, I'm experimenting with various types of Baroque ornamentation.
