From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Baroque (pronounced /bəˈroʊk/, bə-rohk) is an artistic style prevalent from the late 16th century to the early 18th century in Europe. It is most often defined as "the dominant style of art in Europe between the Mannerist and Rococo eras, a style characterized by dynamic movement, overt emotion and self-confident rhetoric". The popularity and success of the Baroque style was encouraged by the Roman Catholic Church, which had decided at the time of the Council of Trent, in response to the Protestant Reformation, that the arts should communicate religious themes in direct and emotional involvement. The aristocracy also saw the dramatic style of Baroque architecture and art as a means of impressing visitors and expressing triumphant power and control. Baroque palaces are built around an entrance of courts, grand staircases and reception rooms of sequentially increasing opulence. From Wikipedia under the

Full explanation of what defined the baroque era, and what features of it were different from the era before it and how did they distinguish the era. Just any thing you know about it really. Thanks.

There is a wide range of information concerning the Baroque period in Classical Music that you can explore on Wikipedia: Aside from that, some of the most notable features of Baroque Music were: - The use of the Harpsichord - A particularly distinct use of string instruments - Orchestras that didn't quite sound fully formed - Strictly timed pieces (Rubato really wasn't used in the Baroque period, neither the Classical to be honest with you) - A heavy use of polyphony and counterpoint (This is especially evident in Bach's Preludes and Fugues - they're amazing) Anyway, I hope I have provided you with some help.

Q. Is there a relationship between pearls and the Baroque? Or jewelry and the Baroque? Ditto the Rococo. If so, can you name some artists and these works? Asked by Blind Android 26 - Thu Apr 23 11:06:19 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Both baroque and rococo art are linked quite closely with jewelry and - definitely with the pearl. "Perla Barroca" means irregular pearl in Portuguese. The root of both "Baroque" and "Rococo" can be seen in this word and today an irregular pearl is called a "Baroque pearl." For an detailed piece on this - because your question interested me - I did an entire post about it. Hopefully it helps. There are examples of the art and different reasons as to why jewelry was such an issue during the era.
