<span>It is always difficult when we compare the styles across multiple art
forms. Baroque is both a period and the style that
dominated it, in the arts. The Baroque style used exaggerated motion and clear,
easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance, and grandeur
in sculpture, painting, literature, and music. There is a heavy use of counterpoint,
instead of using a simple single line melody. Examples are the music of
J.S. Bach, Handle, Vivaldi.</span>
