During the Baroque era, which roughly spans from 1600 to 1750, the two main keyboard instruments were the harpsichord and the organ. The harpsichord, with its plucked strings, was widely used in both solo and ensemble performances. It had a distinct, bright sound and was often used to accompany singers or other instruments. The organ, which produces sound by forcing air through pipes, was prominent in church settings and was used for both liturgical purposes and as a solo instrument. Each instrument had its unique characteristics and was integral to the music of the period. read less
