Heinrich Ignaz Franz Von Biber
Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber (baptism, bapt. 12 August 1644, Stráž pod Ralskem – 3 May 1704, Salzburg) was a Bohemian-Austrian composer and violinist. Biber worked in Graz and Kroměříž before he illegally left his employer, Prince-Bishop Karl II von Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn, Karl Liechtenstein-Kastelkorn, and settled in Salzburg. He remained there for the rest of his life, publishing much of his music but apparently seldom, if ever, giving concert tours. Biber was among the major composers for the violin in the history of the instrument. His own technique allowed him to easily reach the 6th and 7th Violin#Positions, positions, employ Double stop, multiple stops in intricate polyphonic passages, and explore the various possibilities of scordatura tuning.

Battalia (formation)
From the late 16th century into the 18th century battalia, was a description used both for the positioning of units in an army (or navy) on a battle field and the formation in which individual units deployed for battle (battle array or battle order). Sometimes it was used to describe the main body of an army deploy for battle but excluding the wings and other units such as those deployed in front of the main line in skirmishing formation etc. Battalia differs from battalion which is generally the smallest military unit capable of independent operations and would have formed up in its battalia when going into battle.Battalion is derived from the French ''battaillon'' which is derived from the Italian ''battaglione'' "augmentative or diminutive of ''battaglia'' battle n.; compare Spanish ''batallon'' 'a pettie battell or army'." See also *Pike and shot for details of different formation used in a battalia at the time the word was in common usage. Gallery File:A plan of the Royalist ...

Stylus Fantasticus
The stylus fantasticus (or stylus phantasticus) is a style of early baroque music, especially for the instrumental music. Description and history The root of this music is organ toccatas and fantasias, particularly derived from those of Claudio Merulo (1533–1604), organist at St Mark's Basilica in Venice. A later practitioner in Rome was Girolamo Frescobaldi, and his German student Froberger took the style north with him. There were constant flows of Italian musicians north to Bavaria and Saxony, of German musicians south to Italy (such as Hans Leo Hassler and Heinrich Schütz), and of musicians who had careers in both Austria and Italy (such as Sances and Turini). The author, scientist and inventor, a true baroque polymath, Athanasius Kircher describes the stylus fantasticus in his book, ''Musurgia Universalis'': :"The fantastic style is especially suited to instruments. It is the most free and unrestrained method of composing, it is bound to nothing, neither to any words ...
