	American Baroque: Spectacular Baroque and Classical chamber music
		In 1992, American Baroque began exploring the territory of performing new music written for historical instruments through its collaboration with composer, member and gambist Roy Whelden and his pieces Quartet After Abel and Gamba Quartet, which resulted in a CD release on the New Albion label in 1993.
		American Baroque has also received support from Chamber Music America's Millenium Commissioning Program to collaborate with Stanford University composer Jonathan Berger on his new work, Of Hammered Gold (for flute, oboe, violin, viola da gamba and digital bird organ); the work was premiered at Stanford University's Lively Arts series on January 7, 2000.

	Pavlo Beznosiuk: early Baroque chamber ensemble
		As harpsichordist his repertoire ranges from 16th to 20th centuries, in recital, concerto and chamber music, in concert and on radio and CD throughout the world.
		Sonata III ('The Nativity'), however, focuses on the suffering of Mary and Joseph during their journey to Bethlehem, and on Christ, who will suffer a life of hardship before dying on the cross for man's salvation.
		This is portrayed in some baroque art by including the crucifixion scene in the same picture as the nativity, and Biber refers to this in the Adagio with references to music from Sonata X ('The Crucifixion').

	Amazon.com: The System of the World (The Baroque Cycle, Vol. 3): Books: Neal Stephenson
		Daniel Waterhouse has returned to England, hoping to mediate the feud between Sir Isaac Newton and Leibniz, both of whom claim to have discovered the calculus and neither of whom is showing much scientific rationality in the dispute.
		The symbol of that victory is the inventor Thomas Newcomen standing (rather like a cock crowing) atop the boiler of one of his first steam engines.
		This final volume in the cycle is another magnificent portrayal of an era, well worth the long slog it requires of Stephenson's many devoted readers.

	Neal Stephenson's Quicksilver. - By Paul Boutin - Slate Magazine (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Quicksilver is but the first of a three-book series dubbed the Baroque Cycle due to be published at 6-month intervals over the coming year.
		It'll have to compete with The Lord of the Rings, Isaac Asimov's Foundation trilogy, and Douglas Hofstadter's Gödel, Escher, Bach for oversize shelf space in young scientists' libraries, but the Baroque Cycle has the potential to be the next literary Nerdapalooza.
		More likely, the Baroque Cycle will join Gödel, Escher, Bach—which prompted several college friends to name their computers "Escher" and then get sucked into programming instead of finishing the book—in inspiring a generation of propellerheads who will often quote it but never finish it.

		There was, I think, something like a dozen books in between as I got sidetracked in one thing or another.
		But in hindsight, this was in the true spirit of the Baroque Cycle, which meanders, stalls and drifts enough throughout its course as to almost deserve my erratic and mercurial reading of it.

	56 - Neal Stephenson - Quicksilver : Volume One of The Baroque Cycle
		In this wonderfully inventive follow-up to his bestseller Cryptonomicon, Neal Stephenson brings to life a cast of unforgettable characters in a time of breathtaking genius and discovery, men and women whose exploits defined an age known as the Baroque.
		Daniel Waterhouse possesses a brilliant scientific mind -- and yet knows that his genius is dwarfed by that of his friends Isaac Newton, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, and Robert Hooke.
		Traveling from the infant American colonies to the Tower of London to the glittering courts of Louis XIV, and all manner of places in between, this magnificent historical epic brings to vivid life a time like no other, and establishes its author as one of the preeminent talents of our own age.

		By contrast, the other girl sat quietly in the waiting room, her head down and her gaze fixed firmly on a single spot of the bland carpet.
