Why is everyone obsessed with what is harder? Just play whatever you like...
What is harder depends entirely on the person who is playing and the way he wants to play the piece...
I am perfectly normal, it is everyone else who is strange.

Really depends on the person.

To me, Baroque is very hard to play.  Classical is second.  Romantic and 20th century are about equal for me. 

I remember the first time I ever played a 20th century piece my teacher said I was really good at 20th century music.  This must be true, because I've been playing so much lately... u.u

People like how I play romantic music.

As for Baroque... I'm just not good at it u.u  But I'm sure to some people baroque is the easiest.

Baroque for me because much of the time I am fighting to stay awake.

It really depends. Each period in music has it's own type of 'difficult piece.
