Frontispiece of Monteverdi's opera L'Orfeo, Venice edition, 1609. Composed at the beginning of the Baroque period, this was also one of the first operas to be written.

Baroque music is a set of styles of European classical music which were in use between about 1600 and 1750 during the Baroque period.

The word "Baroque" is used in other art forms besides music: we talk about Baroque architecture, painting, sculpture, dance and literature. The Baroque period comes between the Renaissance and the period of Classicism.
