Corelli's inspiration is of unfailing nobility and purity, while his sober and restrained style of writing combines in an effortless way traditional counterpoint with accompanied melody. The modern major-minor tonality holds undisputed sway in all his music. He was not its "inventor" as has been somewhat too lightly asserted, but he affirmed and established it more decisively than any of his predecessors by the way in which he modulates around an initial tonality.
None of his sonata-movements shows the opposition between two themes which was to be the essence of the classical sonata. One theme predominates in each piece, sometimes so completely as to provide the whole of the material, sometimes engendering, by imitation, accessory themes and sequences. The movements are sometimes enlivened, after the fashion of the divertissements in a fugue, by virtuoso passages of a deliberately sober character, far removed from the acrobatics indulged in by an Uccellini or, again, as found in the works of the old Austro-German School.
Corelli also played an important part in the development of the concerto grosso.
