Must-Listen Baroque-Era Classical Pieces (by Composers)

Classical Music has different eras. One of which is the 'Baroque Era' which extends approximately from 1600 to 1750. Music from this era has a unique grand and ornate feeling to it.

Pachelbel - Canon in D major

Yes. He is a baroque composer. And it is hard to find the best version since a lot of the recordings of the piece says something like 'best version' when some of them sounds exactly the same. But here is the best version I have found. Not the most baroque, but yes, the best version.
Vivaldi - Concerto for two Violins in A minor RV522
This has gotten to be more popular than his violin concerto in the same key, RV356 which is a good piece for beginner-intermediates. But I can see how this has become more popular. It has the 'movement' and energy only Vivaldi can create. This is on baroque tuning, which means it's a half step lower than our usual A minor key.
