The Baroque period was really the beginning of the Orchestra, many instruments were changed i.e. viols (weak sounding violins) were replaced by violins, and recorders were replaced by flutes. The Orchestra varied from piece to piece always having strings but woodwind, percussion and brass weren't always used. Brass instruments didnt have valves so the players had a very limited range, (just the harmonic series), all they could use for notes was there embouchure so each player would have a different range depending on there ability. Melodies were often very high pitch as the high notes were very close together and the low notes were very spaced out.
Baroque architecture
As you can see Baroque architecture was very ornate, It shows of skill and the designers were also very skilled. Each piece like the music was unique as it was hand crafted. They both flow with twiddles and repetition at different pitches of music and high.
