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.
