Figured bass is related to what notation used in today's rock and jazz music?

Figured bass was basically a chord chart (also indicating the inversion ) in the Baroque period and musicians improvised upon those charts much like jazz players do today using modern chord chart notation. It was during the later classical period that composers started writing music down in an exact manner and expected musicians to play exactly note by note. Also, figured bass is similar to the Nashville number system. I is the tonic and V is the dominant.....et cetera.

The orchestra evolved in the baroque period into a performing group based on instruments of the family.?

Most Baroque music was for vocalists, keyboard instruments (namely harpsichord and organ), violins (the ancestors of today's violin, viola, and cello), and viols (such as the violone or the viola di gamba). Some woodwind and brass instruments, such as the oboe or the piccolo trumpet, had been invented; however, because of the mean-tone temperament system and the low degree of technological advancement, these instruments were very difficult to play and tune, so they were not used as often.
