VHS

GV1618 .B371 1997

There was no greater influence on Baroque music than dance. The keyboard music from this period was affected by rhythm, tempo and form that came directly from the choreography of Baroque dances. The character of each dance influences the emotional quality of the music by capturing the mood of the physical movements. Understanding the dance steps can add a new dimension to the keyboardist's performance of Baroque dances.
