 "Authentic" baroque music performance: comment and research
Internal evidence of the music itself suggests that the difference between the two outer, and the middle movement was one of character not speed.
In choral music too, balance is often inappropriate musically, when for example the choir is given prominence over the instruments, although baroque composers generally and Bach in particular wrote equally for instruments and voices, taking the musical lines freely from one to the other.
There are also many references in baroque musical literature, both to the importance placed on warmth and vibrato in vocal performance, and to the ideal in violin playing of replicating the human voice.

 Music publishing in Baroque Europe
It is generally accepted that baroque music "began" — if one can use such a term — in Italy, pointing particularly at Corelli as the originator of much that was to become commonplace in baroque musical forms.
Though Italy had pioneered the printing of lined music manuscript paper, actual scores were still printed using movable type, which was expensive, cumbersome, and too inflexible to reproduce clearly all the ties and other markings which are essential if the composer is to convey his intentions to performers with any degree of accuracy.
It was not until the beginning of the following century that Germany and Italy would enter the music publishing scene in a substantial way, with the founding of such names as C F Peters in Leipzig (1800) and Ricordi in Italy (1808).

By contrast, the private music library of Jean-Baptiste Christophe Ballard (who is referred to simply as Ballard, or, in cases where he might be confused with other members of the Ballard family, as J.B.C.), opens a window on his personal taste in music and a means of understanding his sense of le bon gout.
Of note, is a dramatic rise of instrumental music, (chamber and orchestral), methods and theoretical works, and the introduction of solo instrumental music featuring strings and wind instruments, among which, the transverse flute emerges as a leading solo voice.
Italian music is represented only by 120 copies of the motets of Lorenzani, no doubt stemming from his residence in France in service of the court from 1678 to 1693, and his French editions of Italian airs and trios in the Italian manner.

It is intended, he says, for the music lover who wishes occasionally a change from the ombre table in his "hours of leisure".
The idea that music was something to be attempted only after long study and great suffering or to be bought in a store or to be read about in books, magazines, and newspapers was as foreign to this age as were the phonograph, radio, and television.
Undoubtedly it was expected of the average music lover that he would occasionally write some music in an acceptable way - just as he was expected to be able to dance, make a speech, or write letters.

The career that led him there was, in almost every way, a complete contrast to that of his contemporary and fellow countryman, Johann Sebastian Bach (born less than a month after him).
Handel showed great musical talent at an early age, and his father allowed him to study with a local organist and composer.
In England, Handel continued to write operas in the serious Italian style, but his position as the leading operatic composer in England was soon challenged, first by the advent of a rival opera company (the Opera of the Nobility) and then by the development of a new and lighter style of the ballad opera.

However, the music Wanhal produced in Vienna and published in Paris in the 1770s bears witness to his constant activity on the musical scene.
Publishers such as Artaria, Hoffmeister, and Sauer were fiercely competing in response to the demands of a new musical public whose tastes had changed, away from symphonies to small groups, Harmoniemusik, solo and instructional-pieces for keyboard, and programmatic pieces.

In old accounts of his life it is claimed that he had lessons with his father’s plantation manager Platon on St Domingue and it has also been suggested that he studied the violin with Leclair and composition with Gossec in France.
As the six years he spent in La Boëssière’s establishment were devoted exclusively to physical training and academic studies it has been assumed that the bulk of Saint-Georges’ musical education took place between 1758 and 1769, the year of his first professional engagement, as a violinist in Gossec’s Concert des Amateurs.
As is the case with many composers, the dramatic flair which served him so well in instrumental music proved largely unsuited to the theatre.
