Baroque composers and Their Music

These are examples of a Baroque composers work:


This is one of my favourite pieces of Antonio Vivaldi. It's entitled 'Storm' and it really shows the essence of Baroque music because it has a lot of ornamentation.




This is a piece of Henry Purcells, another Baroque composer. This  piece is called Chaconne is G minor and in it you can hear the harpsichord which was the dominant instrument of the era.







Johann Sebastian Bach was another Baroque composer. This is my most favourite piece of his. It's well known but still beautiful.










(There are two versions because they both sound different and I like them both!!)
