Classical music refers to the period from 1750 – 1820. It is also known as the “Age
of Reason” or Age of Enlightenment” because reason and individualism rather than
tradition were emphasized in this period.
The music of the Classical era has a lighter and clearer texture. It is mainly
homophonic.
The melody is simple and easy to remember. There is extensive use of dynamics;
phrases are very regular and of the same length.
During this period, different instrumental forms of music were developed. These were
sonata, concerto, and symphony.
The three greatest and most popular composers of the period are: Franz Josef Haydn,
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Ludwig van Beethoven.
