Ornaments of Delight - with Jeffrey Smith

An intricate element of baroque music is the use of ornaments, or special ways of decorating the music. Some ornaments are light and simple while others take on such richness and extravagance that they dazzle the audience with virtuosity and brilliance. While these ornaments are typically improvised, many composers left behind both instructions and elegant examples of the types of ornaments performers were expected to produce. Come revel in the timeless elegance of music by Telemann, Pachelbel, Corelli, and Bach as we sit at the feet of the masters and learn their ways.
