Baroque music forms a major portion of the classical music canon, being widely studied, performed, and listened to.he negative use of the word comes from a description by Charles de Brosses of the ornate and heavily ornamented architecture of the Pamphili Palace in Rome. Although the term was applied to architecture and art criticism in the 19th century, it wasn't until the 20th century that the term baroque was applied to music.
First off, to many people, classical music is a vague term meaning roughly mostly-instrumental music written by dead (or obscure modern) composers, typically performed by people in formalwear, and when used in this loose sense, it generally includes Baroque music. OK, with that out of the way, here are some more-precise definitions: 1  The Baroque era dates roughly from 1600 to 1750. Some examples of Baroque composers/performers: Monteverdi, Bach, Purcell, Handel, and Corelli. 2  The Classical era dates roughly from the mid-1700s to the mid-1800s.
