Ah, Baroque vibrato! It's actually a technique used by musicians to vary the pitch of the note slightly, which adds some heat to the tone. Vibrato is used sparingly in Baroque music, unlike in later on periods where it's almost a constant.

Appropriate, remember baroque vibrato is generally less pronounced than in romantic or contemporary audio. It's used more like a spice, not the main course Cool
