History of Music

                 History of music can be mainly divided into 4 main periods

• Baroque Period    (1600 -1750)
• Classical Period    (1750 - 1830)
• Romantic Period   (1815 - 1910)
• Modern Period     (20 th century to Present)
  
  
  
  Baroque Period
  The Baroque is a period of artistic style that used exaggerated motion and clear, easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance, and grandeur in sculpture, painting, architecture, literature, dance, and music.Used a large orchestra. Polyphonic style was used often.
• 
  Classical Period
• While still tightly linked to the court culture and absolutism, with its formality and emphasis on order and hierarchy, the new style was also a cleaner style—one that favored clearer divisions between parts, brighter contrasts and colors, and simplicity rather than complexity, and the typical orchestra size increased.
• 
  Romantic Period
• Romantic music attempted to increase emotional expression and power to describe deeper truths or human feelings, while preserving but in many cases extending the formal structures from the classical period, in others, creating new forms that were deemed better suited to the new subject matter. The subject matter in the new music was now not only purely abstract, but also frequently drawn from other art-form sources such as literature, or history (historical figures) or nature itself.
• 
  Modern Period
  Pop, jazz, rock, and others are seen as styles to be used in any work, rather than as separate disciplines. The combination of classical music and multimedia is also a notable practice in the 21st century.
