The orchestra evolved in the baroque period into a performing group based on instruments of the family.?

Most Baroque music was for vocalists, keyboard instruments (namely harpsichord and organ), violins (the ancestors of today's violin, viola, and cello), and viols (such as the violone or the viola di gamba). Some woodwind and brass instruments, such as the oboe or the piccolo trumpet, had been invented; however, because of the mean-tone temperament system and the low degree of technological advancement, these instruments were very difficult to play and tune, so they were not used as often.


When where instruments added to the orchestra?

Instruments have been added to the orchestra over centuries, with significant expansions occurring during the Baroque period (1600-1750) when strings and woodwinds became standard. The Classical period (1750-1820) saw the introduction of brass instruments and percussion, enhancing the orchestra's range and depth. The Romantic period (19th century) further expanded the orchestra with more diverse instruments and larger ensembles, establishing the modern symphony orchestra we recognize today. Each era contributed to the evolving sound and complexity of orchestral music.
