You know, even the most conservative composers of their eras still sounded like contemporary in their days (Brahms and Barber two good examples.) And the thing is, if Brahms HAD written a piece in a Baroque, you can damn well be sure it would have still sounded like Brahms. Why are you writing in a 350 year old style? Honestly? Neo-Baroque music can work QUITE well (See "Prelude, Arioso, and Fugue" by Honegger) but you don't just ignore musical evolution. That is the most outright lazy and PLEBEIAN (note there are TWO E's, Smart Guy) thing that a composer could do. You are just proving that you have no originality, not a creative bone in your body, I'm glad you can copy exactly what the masters 350-400 years ago did without adding any of your own voice at all. Please get off my board you pretentious dullard.
