Title: A treatise of good taste in the art of musick
First published: 1749
Description: The Treatise consists of four songs in English with string quartet accompaniment. I heard the songs sung by a tenor but a soprano could sing them as well.  They are very light with lovely ornamentation that makes the voice sound like an instrumental part of the quartet rather than voice plus accompaniment.
Subjects: Embellishment (Music), Early works to 1800, To 1800, Chamber music, Music, Performance
Time periods: It's a Baroque composition by F. Geminiani - not exactly a house-hold name.  If you are reading this, you understand the period!
