The two giants of the Baroque Period are generally considered to be George Frideric Handel and Johann Sebastian Bach. Using the elements of music, please compare and contrast the 4 selections we are listening to this week, addressing the differences in genre between recitative, aria and chorus in the Messiah oratorio (Handel), and chorale in the cantata (Bach).
