(Baroque) Music recommendations

Intro

Baroque music is definitely my favorite "genre" of music.

I especially like the sound of the harpsichord and there are lots of compositions that have given me an earworm.

These are some of them!

I hope this list might help you discover some Baroque musicians/works you haven't heard before.
