Answer 2

Answer:

Concerto grosso is the form of orchestral music during baroque era where such contrast was found.

Explanation:

• Concerto grosso is a form of baroque music in which musical material is passed between a small group of soloists (concertino) and an entire orchestra (ripieno, tutti, or concerto grosso). This contrasts with solo concertos, which feature a single solo instrument with a melody line accompanied by an orchestra.  The name was not used at first, but the form evolved in the late 17th century. Alessandro Stradella seems to have written the first music in which his two groups of different sizes were combined in a characteristic way. The name was first used by Giovanni Lorenzo his Gregory in a series of his ten works published in Lucca in 1698.
• The first great composer to use the term concerto grosso was Arcangelo Corelli. After Corelli's death, a collection of 12 concertos appeared. Shortly thereafter, composers such as Francesco Geminiani, Pietro Locatelli, Giuseppe Torelli and Giovanni Benedetto Platti wrote concertos in Corelli's style. He also had a strong influence on Antonio Vivaldi.
