Programs
The Baroque Era

The Baroque Era concentrates on secular music written between 1600 and 1750 (from Monteverdi to Bach). To put that music in context, the program makes frequent excursions into sacred Baroque music, into the Renaissance, and into the early Classical era. Composers you’re likely to hear include Handel, Biber, Purcell, Gabrieli, Rameau, Mozart, Telemann, Dowland, Boccherini, Haydn, and every member of the Bach family. WKSU Music Director David Roden hosts The Baroque Era.

The program returned to WKSU’s air in December of 1999, but ran originally from 1977 through the early ’90s. Roden also hosted the original version of The Baroque Era for over a decade.
