Though he wasn't born in America, and moved there later, you could argue Charles Theodore Pachelbel was an American composer during the Baroque Era through residency.
His death date is not known for certain, but he was buried on September 15, 1750. He lived in the colony of South Carolina but the United States wasn't formed yet.
What else can I help you with?
Who among the following in visuals is not considered a baroque style composer?
The beginning of the classical period was in around 1750, so any composers whose music was published around this date or after aren't baroque composers. The most famous baroque composers include Handel, J.S Bach and Vivaldi, whilst the pioneers of the classical era were Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven.
Are there any female composers?
YES! Quite a few women composers were very famous at the time and made a living as performers and composers, if that is how you define success. Do a search for "Baroque Women Composers", and you will learn of a dozen or more. Here's three that were especially famous in their own life times to get you started: Barbara Strozzi, Francesca Caccini, and Elisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre. There are also performers today that specialize in finding and performing music by Baroque women including Ars Femina and La Donna Musicale.
Most of the baroque music you hear today comes from which baroque period?
Music from the baroque period was great masterpieces from composers such as J.S. Bach and L. v. Beethoven. One of the major things the differenciates music from the Baroque period to any other is that the majority of music written at the time were composed and performed on a harpsichord, which is like a piano in many respects but it has no dynamic contrast and has two sets of keys (one on top, one on bottom) and pieces were written specificlly for the harpsichord and maybe a small ensemble but not a whole orchestra. Just as Pop music originated from America and reggae originated from Jamaica, Baroque music originated from Central Europe (Germany, Italy, Austria etc) and is still the home of Classical music today. Also, Baroque music usually consists of simple, easy-to-remember melodies because this was sort of the first real genre and composers were at a walking pace when it came to composing so did not want to over-complicate themselves (if that makes any sense at all!) That is all I know about the Baroque period, hope it helps!
What are composers for the Recorder?
The recorder was the most common instrument in the renaissance by a long what so many, many composers compose for it. It was still popular in the baroque period though not the most. So, I'm guessing there are thousands of them. In the Renaissance the music wasn't written "For Recorder" but "For Soprano" so it could be any instrument able to play in that range.
How did baroque musicians come to be musicians?
To become a musician in the Baroque period, one had to be a son of a musician or become an apprentice. Most composers were choir boys who learned about music in choir school. If one didn't have any parents, they also had a chance to be a musician. Orphans were trained in music, so they could be put in operas as actors or instrumentalists.

A Baroque keyboard instrument refers to any keyboard instrument commonly used during the Baroque period (approximately 1600-1750), including the harpsichord, clavichord, and organ. These instruments are characterized by their unique construction and sound production methods; for example, the harpsichord plucks strings with quills, while the clavichord strikes the strings with tangents.
