A baroque sonata is anything instrumental. It evolved into the "triosonata," which was 4 instruments played as 3 layers or lines. The soprano and base were very contrasting, in order to create polarity. The harpsichord is very characteristic of the Baroque sonata. AN example would be Corelli's Opus 1.
