If there's one old style I learn to imitate well I'd like it to be baroque. Here's a few brief pieces that aim in this direction. First one is for harpsichord, then clavichord, then flute organ, all on my roland digital. now put on a powdered wig and enjoy  :)

*puts on powdered wig, looks seriously like Bach and listens*

Hmmm the first part reminds me of an introduction to a fugue, like in the Bach toccatas, which I love so much :) I am not going to analyse this though, I just like to listen :) The clavichord part sounds a bit more ancient, something like 1600 or so? Very nice :) And the organ part sounds even more like early baroque, in a positive sense. Are you wanting to go back in time? It sounds nice, nostalgic and though somehow modern.
