I love Baroque music, and that was my favourite class in our series of mandatory music history classes.

First up, one of my all time favourite pieces of the period, Arcangelo Corelli's Trio Sonata Op. 3, No. 1

Now for some Baroque flute music. Georg Philip Telemann, Fantasia in d minor. I played this piece last year for my final flute exam, and did very well with it. It's a gorgeous piece written for a beautiful instrument. Nina Perlove, one of my favourite flutists on Youtube, is playing it:

And here's a bunch of other pieces I really enjoy:

Dietrich Buxtehude, Passacaglia in d minor

J. S. Bach, Toccata and Fugue in d minor

Domenico Scarlatti, Sonata for Harpsichord, K. 455

J. S. Bach: Prelude and Fugue No. 3, in c# minor, Well-Tempered Clavier book 1

Antonio Vivaldi, The Four Seasons concertos: Spring (in E major):

Oh my gosh, I could post forever in this topic!
