In the middle of the page that discusses Baroque Composers and Musicians, there are two separate links to Baroque Music Collections, each including a number of examples of music that you can listen to. These examples often use different instruments than we are used to hearing today. What are some of the instruments you hear? How is the sound of the music different than what we might hear today? Who was Arcangelo Corelli? Who was Gottfried Silbermann? After listening to some of the music samples, how would you describe Baroque music to someone who had not heard it before? Choose at least one piece of music to discuss in detail. What instruments do you think the work uses? Who composed the work? What does the work sound like?
