How did music differ before and after bach? baroque music performace 1. how have the performances of baroque music changed (in terms of tempi, balance and timbre) from the baroque period to today? 2. what is a baroque spirit when playing music?

I actually read a book about this. There have been many changes due to Bach's' music. The music has been changed many, many times. Bach had a classical, yet playful music style. Due to his influence, it has changed music since then. It has made music today more, playful. For say, hip hop. A baroque spirit, is to be classy, yet fun.
