Some interesting things popped up on the web recently that nod towards the baroque and classical repertoire, including two articles in the New York Times. Here are a few to enjoy for Friday:

The New York Times looks at the Naïve label’s Vivaldi series and includes some sound clips.

A theory on what really killed Mozart.

Corelli performed on an unexpected instrument.

Handel and Purcell made the Fall 2009 cover of Early Music America magazine. The latest issue of the subscription-only magazine includes articles on historical harps, recordings of Dido and Aeneas, an analysis of masterclasses, and a listing of places to study Early Music.

A very cool place to look for discount recordings.

In case you missed them, here are this week's blog posts:

"The NFA and the Baroque Flute"

"The Play of Daniel at the National Recording Registry"

Harmonia
