Definition of undefined

The term "classical music" emerged in the late 18th century, initially referring to the music of the "classical" period (roughly 1750-1820) dominated by composers like Mozart and Haydn. This period was seen as a "golden age" of music, emphasizing balance, order, and clear forms. As the 19th century progressed, the term broadened to encompass earlier eras like the Baroque and Renaissance, creating a distinction between "classical" music and the then-emerging "Romantic" style. Today, "classical music" generally refers to the Western art music tradition from the medieval period onwards.
