RE: 7 Interesting and Weird Facts About... Johann Sebastian Bach, AKA 'The Old Wig' (According to his son...)
I know! But there are also other composers that I like from that period, like Purcell. But Bach is the main representative of the period :)
Check out Rameau for some really French Baroque, a very different style.
Yup! Just listened to some works by him on Youtube. Less intense than Bach, a little lighter in overall feel, but still very Baroque.
I'm seriously enjoying listening to him, thanks for the recommendation!
You should hear it in large orchestra formation. Single violin part, 2 viola parts The continuo section from hell! Bass violins, Basses, plucked instruments and keyboard galore.
The earth shakes!
