page & content DO NOT promote DRUG ABUSE ! In fact, quite the opposite... Music, as an art form, meant to be deeply psychedelic from the days of it's inception - Psychedelics are primarily used to alter perception, mood, and cognitive processes, which can lead to experiences of insight, emotional release, and altered states of consciousness - this is what exactly art of Music does... If music does not produce any, stated above, effects - it is due to being poorly put together. An ancient Latin descriptions of the art of Music says - MVSICA · LETITIÆ · COMES · MEDICINA · DOLORIS - music: pleasure's companion, remedy of sorrow... Actively listening to different types and genres of Music, is better and healthier alternative to self-medicating with chemical, synthetic and organically derived substitutes. Happy Music everyone.

Introduction to the Baroque Era/Period Music

The Baroque era 1590 - 1750, spanning from the late 16th century to the early 18th century, was a time of artistic grandeur and musical innovation. This period in music history is characterized by its ornate and intricate compositions, elaborate melodies, and the use of various instruments to create a rich and dynamic musical tapestry.

Baroque music is known for its use of dramatic contrasts, ornamentation, and emotional intensity. Composers of the Baroque era aimed to create music that evoked powerful emotions and stimulated the senses. This led to the development of new musical forms and styles, such as the opera, oratorio, and concerto.

The Baroque era brought about significant changes in music composition. Composers began to explore complex harmonies, intricate melodies, and the use of contrasting textures to create depth and expressiveness in their compositions. This era also saw the emergence of virtuosic instrumental music and the establishment of the basso continuo as a standard practice in music composition.

He started his guitar studies at an early age with Yannis Andreopoulos and later joined the class of famous guitarist Dimitris Fampas.  He also studied theory of music with Michalis Vourtsis, Nikiforos Nevrakis and Petros Tsitsopoulos (Diploma of Fugue). On graduating with Distinction from the National Conservatory, he continued his studies in England on a British Council scholarship.
