Baroque music
Baroque music describes an era and a set of styles of
European classical music which were in widespread use between
approximately 1600 and 1750. This era is said to begin in music after the
Renaissance and was followed by the
Classical music era. The original meaning of "
baroque" is "irregular pearl", a strikingly fitting characterization of the
architecture of this period; later, the name came to be applied also to its music. Baroque music forms a major portion of the classical music canon. It is widely performed, studied and listened to. It is associated with composers and their works such as
J.S. Bach's Fugues,
George Friedrich Händel's Hallelujah Chorus from
Messiah,
Antonio Vivaldi's
Four Seasons, and
Claudio Monteverdi's
Vespers of 1610. During the period,
music theory,
diatonic tonality, and
imitative counterpoint developed. More elaborate musical ornamentation, as well as changes in musical notation and advances in the way instruments were played also appeared. Baroque music developed an expansion in the size, range and complexity of performance, as well as the establishment of
opera as a type of musical performance. Many musical terms and concepts from this era are still in use today. It has general characteristics, unity of emotion, ornamentation, and a contrasting rhythm with improvisation. Its melodies usually had a continuous line moving, terrace dynamics and extensions (either adding to the music or subtracting).

Barockmusik
Die Periode der Barockmusik in der abendländischen
Kunstmusik, auch bezeichnet als Generalbasszeitalter, schließt sich an die
Renaissance an und erstreckt sich vom Beginn des
17. bis in die Mitte des
18. Jahrhunderts. Sie zählt zur
Alten Musik.Der Beginn des musikalischen
Barock wird durch die Kompositionen
Claudio Monteverdis markiert. Eine mögliche Einteilung des weiteren Zeitraums, die jedoch nur als ungefähr betrachtet werden muss, ist wie folgt:Frühbarock (ca. 1600 bis 1650), unter italienischer Dominanz;Hochbarock (ca. 1650 bis 1710), mit bedeutenden französischen Einflüssen;Spätbarock (ca. 1710 bis 1750), mit Tendenz zur Vereinigung regionaler Stile.

Musica barocca
Il termine musica barocca indica
musica composta nel
XVII secolo e nella prima metà del
XVIII secolo, periodo corrispondente alla diffusione del
barocco nell'
arte. La produzione musicale dei primi decenni del XVII secolo mostra, in tutte le nazioni d'Europa anche se in forme diverse, la comparsa di generi e caratteri stilistici tipicamente "barocchi", a fianco di composizioni che ancora rientrano completamente nell'orizzonte stilistico
tardo-rinascimentale (a volte i due stili coesistono nell'ambito della produzione dello stesso compositore): pertanto non è possibile stabilire una data precisa di inizio del periodo barocco in musica (e analoghe considerazioni si possono fare in merito alla sua conclusione).
