Dutch Baroque music is a style of music that originated in the Netherlands during the 17th century. It is characterized by its use of polyphony, or multiple melodic lines, and its use of counterpoint, or the interweaving of two or more melodic lines. It is also known for its use of ornamentation, such as trills, mordents, and turns. Dutch Baroque music is often considered to be a more restrained and less flamboyant style than other Baroque styles, such as the Italian and French Baroque. It is also known for its use of the basso continuo, a type of accompaniment that uses a bass line and chords to provide harmonic structure. Dutch Baroque composers include Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, Jan Willem Friso, and Jan de Fesch.
