by Michael Talbot (Author)
There has been no study of the Baroque cantata since Eugen Schmitz's handbook of 1914, and although many academic theses have examined the cantatas of individual composers, there has been little opportunity to view these against the broader canvas of the genre as a whole. This work focuses on Italian-born composers working between 1650 and 1750.
