Classical Music
Classical Music
classical music (small ‘c’) is used when referring to Western instrumental, orchestral, vocal and choral music – created for both secular and sacred settings. In this category, I will be a bit more focused on baroque era operas, oratorios, anthems, concerti grossi, and organ concertos.
music written in a Western musical tradition, usually using an established form (for example a symphony). Classical music is generally considered to be serious and to have a lasting value.
The contemporary understanding of the term "classical music" remains vague and multifaceted. Other terms such as "art music", "canonic music", and "serious music" are largely synonymous.
