About this exposition

Ornamentation was a predominant musical practice in the 17th and 18th centuries, in which the performer showed his genius and musicality by creating musical motifs that embellished the melody. During the first half of the 18th century, it was common for composers to leave slow movements fairly empty and free for improvisation. One of the most useful sources for the study of ornamentation is Telemann's Methodical Sonatas. These ornaments appear in the first movement of each sonata and are the ones that have been selected, studied, and represented in my version of the fantasias.
