The Baroque period is also known for a great expansion in classical music.  During this period, the piano became more prominent and began to replace the harpsichord as an orchestral instrument.  Baroque composers include George Frideric Handel, Antonio Vivaldi, and Johann Sebastian Bach. The period is characterized by tiered [[dynamics]] and the introduction of the Italian form (for the [[concerto]]) and the [[Sonata]] form (as a widely adopted musical organizational structure).
