Johann Sebastian Bach was the composer of "The Well Tempered Clavier" and it was during the baroque period.
In all honesty I do not know what the baroque period was. However, today, I finally read that the Clavier refers to instruments such as the harpsichord and while I did not know the answer, Bach would have been my first guess. This is because the Brandenburg Concertos I-VI are among my favorite classical pieces. While my classical exposure is very limited, Bach's use of the harpsichord in these concertos is truly beautiful and sounds almost hauntingly so. When I listen to them to this day--they are very enjoyable, almost entrancing in their sound. I highly recommend the Brandenburg Concertos to anyone.
Today's Question:
What is the meaning of the acronym: MIRV?
This one stumps me completely, I might've been able to venture a guess but don't even know of the subject area.
Have a nice day, Trish
