The first article for this blog is about period of classical music for you who begin listening or are interested to classical music.
1. Medieval or Middle Age (500-1400 A.D.) Begins from the fall of the Roman Empire. There were many chant songs. Very good examples are gregorian chants.
2. Renaissance (1400-1600) More various music instruments, but songs were still connected to religion.
3. Baroque (1600-1750) Music elements in this period were more complicated. Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) is very good example of composers in Baroque. Please notice that if an orchestra plays Baroque song, you can hear a slightly sound of harpsichord (a keyboard instrument).
4. Classic (1750-1820) Very absolute music, not so much expressions. Simple patterns. Famous composers we should know are Mozart, Haydn, etc.
5. Romantic (Approximately 1800-1900) Many composers’ expressions in their songs. Well-known composers are Beethoven, Schubert, Chopin, Wagner, etc.
6. Impressionism (1875-1925), led by French composer Claude Debussy. Many whole-tone scale songs.
7. Modernism (1890-1930) Various groups in this era like Expressionism, Neo-Classicism, etc.
8. 20th Century (1901-2000)
9. 21th Century (2001-Present) Both 8. and 9. are more tough to listen.
