the architecture of churches during the early french baroque period evolved more slowly; the late mannerist gothic style, exemplified by the church of saint-étienne-du-mont by claude guérin (1606–21), was still the dominant style. however, between 1690 and 1755 twenty-four new church facades were built in paris. competitions for new church designs, particularly the prix de rome and the competition for the enlarging of saint-sulpice and saint-eustache in paris, brought forward many original ideas.

the baroque period, the 17th and 18th centuries, began to feature the major and minor scale based tonal system and harmony, including chord progressions and circle progressions. it was in the baroque period that the accompaniment of melodies with chords was developed, as in figured bass, and the familiar cadences (perfect authentic, etc.). in the renaissance, certain dissonant sonorities that suggest the dominant seventh occurred with frequency. in the baroque period, the dominant seventh proper was introduced and was in constant use in the classical and romantic periods. the leading-tone seventh appeared in the baroque period and remains in use. composers began to use nondominant seventh chords in the baroque period. they became frequent in the classical period, gave way to altered dominants in the romantic period, and underwent a resurgence in the post-romantic and impressionistic period.
