| Abstract |
This anthology, part of the Western Music in Context series, is the ideal companion to "Music in the Baroque." The twenty-six carefully chosen works range from standard repertoire, including a cantata by Barbara Strozzi and selections from J.S. Bach's Art of Fugue, to rarely anthologized works, such as Henry Purcell's King Arthur and Georg Philipp Telemann's Ouverture burlesque de Quixotte. Commentaries following each score present an insightful analysis of the music. |
| General note | Companion anthology to the book Music in the baroque by Wendy Heller. |
| General note | Each selection followed by its text, when present, with English translation, and an analysis written by Heller. |
| Language | English, Latin, Italian, and French words, also printed separately as text. |
