This is a list of artists who have been described as general purveyors of baroque pop , a genre identifiable for its appropriation of Baroque compositional styles (contrapuntal melodies and functional harmony patterns) and dramatic or melancholic gestures. Harpsichords figure prominently,[2] [3] while oboes , French horns , and string quartets are also common.[3] It emerged in the mid 1960s as artists pursued a majestic, orchestral sound.[3]
1960s–70s [ edit ]
