RE: Censured music from the Baroque (aka: It's the little things)
Very interesting post today @bengy. To think segments of music are deconstructed and utilized in other"less controversial" pieces is quite humorous. Amazing that certain forms of improper behavior were deemed allowable and thus openly displayed through music. Great history. You are quite a genius, I hope you realize that! Enjoy reading your posts :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the post... during the Baroque time, ti was quite common to "repackage" music and reuse it in a completely different setting and form.. in fact, some famous composers even repackaged (aka plagarised) music from lesser known composers!
Anyway... things that we know a lot (due to it being the area of our specialisation) about tend to sound more impressive to a lay person! There are many things that I read about here on Steem and elsewhere that are completely mind-blowing for me... but are probably pretty mundane for the writer!
