Why is Baroque better then Classical?

Name: Anonymous 2010-09-26 13:04

Baroque music to me is just so much better then classical music. It seems that Baroque music is made to really delight the ears of it's listeners, while classical music is made for atmospheric purpouses or for general Ambience. Of course there is a few exceptions to this, but the majority of classical music has nowhere near the beauty of baroque music.

I'm not saying classical isn't enjoyable by any means.. It's just baroque has a sort of in your face kind of playing, it's very exciting and usually always sends chills to my spine. While classical is always the kind of music you hear in the background of a movie while a person is looking at a lake or something.

I do like Domenico Dragonetti however! A classical composer who to me has a very baroque in spirit.

If you are to make a distinction from "classical" and "baroque" you should also make a distinction between romance and classicist.
By the way, here is an enormous youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/Meyerbeer1 with complete noname (today in anglophonia, that is) composers!

I am well aware of the difference between Romance and Classical. The reason I put chopin up there is because it proved my point that most classical music was for Atmospheric purposes. He may not be pure classical, but romance did shoot off from classical and they aren't that different.
