Music History - Part One Music History 101, by Robert Sherrane, is the launching pad for a two week series to be presented. Mr. Sherrane has done a marvelous job of gathering information in a succinct, yet thorough fashion. It is very easy to navigate and pleasing to the eye. This week's article will focus primarily on the Renaissance Period and the Baroque Period. One note: You will need the Real Audio player installed to hear the music at Music History 101. I prefer Real Audio because the sound files download MUCH faster than wavs and the sound is very good, too. Best of all the Real Audio player is FREE. music history 101 • by robert sherrane • is the launching pad for a two week series to be p • yet thorough fashion. it is very easy to navigate • too. best of all the real audio player is free.
