| | It is generally used to refer to Western art music – that is, music for the concert hall or church written in the tradition that originated with European music of the Middle Ages and passed through the Renaissance, baroque, classical, and Romantic styles. | | | Music of the classical era emphasized elegance and formal logic over personal expression and emotion. | | | The term is also used (often with a capital C) for music of the classical period of music history, to distinguish it from baroque music and Romantic music. |

| | Classical music as "music of the classical era" | | | The term classical music did not appear until the early 19th century, in an attempt to 'canonize' the period from Bach to Beethoven as an era in music parallel to the golden age of sculpture, architecture and art of classical antiquity, (from which of course no music has directly survived). | | | Classical music is primarily a written musical tradition, preserved in music notation, as opposed to being transmitted orally, by rote, or in recordings. |

| | Classical Music - A short history |
| | The western tradition of music has its origins in the chant tradition of the early Christian era. | | | Later in the century, the Classic style of Haydn and Mozart dominated the music of Western Europe, with the symphony, sonata, and string quartet predominating, and the sonata principle at the core of musical structure. | | | These include the development of the symphony as a genre; program music and the ideal of absolute music; grand opera; lieder; character pieces for piano; the piano sonata; national musical style; and the expansion of tonality and harmonic practice. |

| | Baroque music - free-definition |
| | Baroque music is Western classical music from the Baroque era, after the Renaissance music era and before the Classical music era proper. | | | In Classical music, which followed the Baroque, the role of counterpoint was diminished (albeit repeatedly rediscovered and reintroduced; see fugue), and replaced by a homophonic texture. | | | Baroque music shares with Renaissance music a heavy use of polyphony and counterpoint. |

| | A Circular Letter of the Musical Signification Project, Helsinki, January 24, 2000 |
| | Given this semiotic relationship between classical music and politics, it is illuminating to examine the recorded interpretations of the Pathétique by Karajan, Furtwängler and Mengelberg...." To really hear representations, in a recording, of so-called "nazi semiotics" should prove to be a theoretical challenge to music semioticians. | | | Entitled The Music of the Spheres, it consists of essays on grammaticality, morphology and melodic processes in the classical style, as well as writings on style-change, and on the sciences, arts, and humanities in the broader sense it concludes with an article on the "universe of universals". | | | The chapters are "Levi-Straussian" " headed with musical terms " and the author investigates silence and noise in Muzak, vocal music, music and body, contemporary music, and to conclude, particularly in the music of Gilberto Mendes. |

| | "Turkish music", in the sense described here, is not really music of Turkey, but rather a musical style that was occasionally used by the European composers of the Classical music era. | | | When "Turkish" music was scored for orchestra, it normally used extra percussion instruments not otherwise found in orchestras of the Classical period: typically, the bass drum, the triangle, and cymbals. | | | Turkish music commonly is found in finales, which (as Charles Rosen point out) are typically the most relaxed and loosely organized movements of Classical works. |
