If it wasn't for the HIP movement, most of the baroque music we hear today would never have gotten played and/or recorded.
There is stylistically a wide divergence of playing in the HIP movement. Any casual investigation will find many different ways of playing the Brandenburgs or The Four Seasons.
I really don't get the anti-HIP tirades on this forum. There are many beautiful and virtuosic recorded performances out there.
