Could I get some violin-centric music, preferably from the Baroque Era?

Hmm... Anything a little less obvious? I already have like a ton of JSB compositions (including the first concerto you've posted).

As reference, the only other Baroque artist I already know of is Jean-Baptiste Lully.

Oh wow, then you have a lot to discover!

Antonio Vivaldi's Four Seasons



Domenico Scarlatti - Sonata K81 for Violin and Basso Continuo



Handel - Violin Sonata No. 1 in A Major, op. 1-3



Bach - Chaconne in D Minor for solo violin, BWV 1004



That's only scratching the surface, really.

Well, you didn't say so, dude, Bach is my favorite baroque composer by a sizable margin :)

How's this

Also, Telemann's Viola Concerto

lol yeah, it's like a tertiary genre for me (like a once or twice a year thing) but now with Spring approaching I wanted to try to get into it a lot more.

Sorry about my previous post, I didn't mean to come off like that. I just kind of figured before that Bach was perceived as common knowledge within classical music (like with Beethoven and Mozart). I like Bach too, it's just that I wanted something different.

Thanks for these recommendations, I'll formally check on them tomorrow morning.

J.S. Bach- Partita No. 4 in Dm

Been practicing this piece on guitar. Paul Gilbert did an amazing electric guitar version of it. It's such an amazing piece! Bach was a genius. It's quite challenging, to say the least :)

Where can I find the words to George Benjamin's song Offerings?

Thank you.
