No. There are very challenging pieces available from earlier time periods, from Medieval motets by Machaut with awkward cross-rhythms and unfamiliar cadences, to finger-crunching Renaissance Lute fantasias by Dowland, highly ornamented keyboard music (Fitzwilliam virginal book), and 5+ line masses for a large group (Palestrina, DePrez etc.). Each era has its own stylistic challenges for interpretation and performance which make it complex. Sometimes the notes on the page are only a loose guide to what must be played! The Baroque period is closer to our own time in documentation and style, and is also better represented in the media, so it is easy to assume that it must be the most complex. It is also worth noting that advanced forms of improvisation have been practiced in each era, so that adds an additional level of difficulty when approaching the material.
