Photograph of Arcangelo Corelli

Arcangelo Corelli

composer

Arcangelo Corelli (1653–1713) was an Italian Baroque violinist and composer. His sonatas and concerti grossi helped establish the violin’s pre-eminence and fixed models of the sonata and concerto that spread across Europe.

Photograph of George Frideric Handel

George Frideric Handel

composer

George Frideric Handel (1685–1759) was a German-born Baroque composer who settled in London and became a naturalised British subject. He is celebrated for his operas, English oratorios, organ concertos and orchestral works.

Photograph of Henry Purcell

Henry Purcell

composer

Henry Purcell (c. 1659–1695) was an English organist and composer of the middle Baroque. His sacred music, theatre songs, instrumental works and the opera Dido and Aeneas shaped a distinctly English Baroque style.

Photograph of Georg Philipp Telemann

Georg Philipp Telemann

composer

Georg Philipp Telemann (1681–1767) was a German Baroque composer and multi-instrumentalist. Almost completely self-taught, he became a composer against his family's wishes and ranked among the leading German musicians of his age.

Photograph of Giuseppe Torelli

Giuseppe Torelli

composer

Giuseppe Torelli's music for trumpet and strings sits at the heart of the middle Baroque concerto. His sonatas and concertos give the natural trumpet bright, ceremonial lines over lively string writing.
