Gallant Style Gopak

from Disco Computer Pop Jams by Str8 Sounds

/

about

Internet Synthpop Computer Music -- made with virtual, online, web browser-based synthesizers: WebSynths Microtonal and AcidMachine. Hardware instrument: Korg Monotron Duo analog ribbon synthesizer.

A gopak is an energetic Ukrainian dance in duple time, traditionally performed by men.

The gallant style, fashionable from the 1720s to the 1770s, featured a return to simplicity and immediacy of appeal after the complexity of the late Baroque era, and was drawn in opposition to the strictures of the Baroque style.

Gallant style artists rebelled by emphasizing light elegance in place of the Baroque's dignified seriousness and high grandeur.
