The music of Johann Sebastian Bach, George Frederic Handel and
Domenico Scarlatti received more performances, publications and
appreciation in Britain between 1750-1850 than in any other country
during this era. The compositions of these three seminal baroque
composers were heard in the numerous public and private concerts
that proliferated at this time; edited, arranged and published for
professionals and amateurs; written about by scholars and
journalists; and used as teaching pieces and in pedagogical
treatises. This Element examines the reception of their music
during this dynamic period in British musical history, and places
the discussion within the context of the artistic, cultural,
economic, and political factors that stimulated such passionate
interest in 'ancient music.' It also offers a vivid picture of the
aesthetic concerns of those musicians and audiences involved with
this repertoire, providing insights that help us better understand
our own encounters with music of the past.
