Baroque Pop: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

''It's a more complex form, likely to have more varied instrumentation and/or more ambitious song structures. Whilst the term baroque pop originated in 1960's music journalism during a fad for using a harpsichord in pop songs, the term as used by music journalists has come to mean something more ornate and complex than most pop music. In terms of modern artists, the two most often cited are the classically influenced ostentatious pop songs of [[Rufus Wainwright]], and the complex arrangements of [[Sufjan Stevens]]' music with their non-standard time signatures, instrumentation and harmonic counterpoints.''"
