The most famous composers of the Baroque Era are Claudio Monteverdi, Antonio Vivaldi, George Frideric Handel, and Johann Sebastian Bach.
The Four Seasons by Vivaldi is a must have for baroque lovers.
So I do not have to repost.

Adagio in G minor by Albinoni
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz4dpbk8YBs

Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni
The "Adagio in G minor" attributed to him (actually a later reconstruction) is one of the most frequently recorded pieces of Baroque music.

Adagio in G minor for strings and organ is a piece composed by Remo Giazotto while supposedly based on a fragment from a Sonata in G minor by Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni which was found amongst the ruins of the old Saxon State Library, Dresden, after it was firebombed by the Allies during World War II. The Adagio was first published in 1958.

The piece was repeatedly used as an underlying score for Orson Welles' adaption of Kafka's "The Trial". The piece has been used most notably in the 1981 Peter Weir film Gallipoli, which was themed around the famous World War I battle of the same name; and in the original version of the film Rollerball (1975). The piece was also used throughout the episode "Dragon's Domain," from the first season of the mid-1970s sci-fi TV series Space: 1999, and later included on the expanded double-CD Year 1 soundtrack released in 1998. The Adagio has been used as background music in many television programmes and advertisements including the popular BBC sitcom, Butterflies and the 1982 anime film Arcadia of My Youth. The Adagio can be heard Steven Galloway's novel, "The Cellist of Sarajevo". Adagio is also used as the introduction on the song, "Icarus Dream Suite Op.4," by Yngwie Malmsteen on his album, Rising Force. It is also used by The Doors on the album An American Prayer.

It is most commonly orchestrated for string ensemble and organ, or string ensemble alone.
