Performances of Baroque music have evolved significantly from the Baroque period to today, particularly in terms of tempo, balance, and timbre. Historically, performances were characterized by a more flexible approach to tempo, often influenced by the expressive needs of the music, whereas modern interpretations tend to favor more consistent and metronomic tempos. Additionally, the balance between instruments has shifted, with contemporary ensembles often prioritizing clarity and equality among voices, contrasting with the more hierarchical textures of the past. Finally, advances in instrument construction and recording technology have expanded the timbral possibilities, allowing for a broader range of sound colors and effects than were available during the Baroque era.
