Baroque was before the Classical period from the 1600s-1700s. Some composers include Bach, Telemann, Pachelbel, Purcell, Vivaldi, and Handel. Many woodwinds and strings, imagine dancing in a castle, that would be baroque music. The harpsichord was a very popular instrument at the time. The Baroque music style followed the Renaissance style, and made more complex use of harmony and rhythm. It was typically harder to perform than Renaissance music as it was written more for virtuoso singers and instrumentalists. There was a great deal of counterpoint, and the fugue was a popular form for composers.
