This Masterclass lesson presented by Dr. Peter Zisa introduces two types of baroque ornamentation: the trill and the mordent. He demonstrates how may be applied in a Saraband by Robert de Visée'. De Visée' was a guitarist, theorbo and viol player, singer, and composer. In 1680 he was employed by King Louis XIV. He composed two volumes of guitar music.
A saraband is a moderately slow stately dance in triple meter. The second beat is accented and often is notated as a dotted-quarter note.
