As is the case with most historical divisions, including those involving music, successive periods are nearly always "reactive" to preceding periods in some significant ways while also being continuations in other ways. Musically, the Baroque Period reacted to the Renaissance by stressing complex harmony and refined ornamentation, along with natural themes and new forms. At the same time, it continued the Renaissance emphasis upon sacred themes and forms as the primary basis for composition.
