basque

An autonomous community in Northern Spain which also extends into Southern France (where it is known as Pays Basque). Many Basques consider themselves to be a separate people from the French and the Spanish.

The Basques have their own language called Euskera and use it in combination with Spanish or French (depending on which region of the Basque country they are from) in their everyday dialect. The Basques' favourite sports are cycling, football and their own 'Basque sports', rugby is also extremely popular in the French region of the Basque country. Basque chefs are famous for their cooking abilities and Basque seafood dishes are renowned my many throughout the world.

Many Basques wish for there to be self determination for the Basque country, which means that they want there to be a vote which decides whether they can form their own country or not. However this is unlikely to happen because it would require both the Spanish and French governments to cooperate in handing territory over to the Basques. The participating governments, particularly in Spain, would also risk losing popularity amongst the wider national community if they were to do this.

baroque pop

In simplest terms, baroque pop is a form of music that conflates rock 'n roll with classical.

Like music from the Baroque period, this style is characterized by ornate sound arrangements. A typical baroque pop song would include strings, harmonies, and amiable vocals. Though certainly not limited to the following, other instruments commonly found in baroque pop include: horns, pianos, mellotrons, and harpsichords.

Baroque pop began as a commercial product, which meant that most songs followed the composer-producer-performer formula that dominated popular music before the time of rock 'n roll (and still wildly popular, even amongst rock 'n roll, during the mid-'60s, when baroque pop first emerged). Songs were typically aimed toward teenagers, and in typical pop fashion, themes mostly centered around teenage romance.

Baroque pop, even to this day, has many faces. Sunshine pop, a sound pioneered along the West Coast during the 1960s, shares characteristics with baroque pop. Many Northern soul, bubblegum, and psychedelic pop songs fall under the category of baroque pop as well. Even today, many rock 'n roll artists show influence by incorporating lush melodies, harmonies, and instrumentation into songs.

Two of the most popular baroque pop albums are 1966's Pet Sounds and 1967's Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Though baroque pop's origins are not definite, many believe that the sound was pioneered by The Zombies with the release of their first single, "She's Not There", in 1964.
Recognizable baroque pop singles:
The Left Banke - Walk Away Renée.
The Zombies - She's Not There.
The Beach Boys - Wouldn't It Be Nice.
