What are the characteristics of modern arts?

What characteristics are common to all the arts in the Baroque period?

  • I trying to come up with three or four common characteristics in the Baroque peirod in the (art, music, sculpture, architecture, paintings).

  • Answer:

    In the arts, Baroque is both a period and the style that dominated it. The Baroque style used exaggerated motion and clear, easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance, and grandeur in sculpture, painting, literature, and music. The style started around 1600 in Rome, Italy and spread to most of Europe. In music, the Baroque applies to the final period of dominance of imitative counterpoint, where different voices and instruments echo each other but at different pitches, sometimes inverting the echo, and even reversing thematic material - wikipedia

Baroque Music: 1. Frequently, they will start on the tonic of the key, then repeat the phrase, (or a variation) a fifth up, particularly in fugues. 2. The string parts tend to be performed with little or no vibrato. 3. Heavy use of counterpoint, instead of a simple single line melody; (For example, the music of J.S. Bach, Handle, Vivaldi).
