	European classical music Summary
		Classical music is a broad, somewhat imprecise term, referring to music produced in, or rooted in the traditions of, European art, ecclesiastical and concert music, encompassing a broad period from roughly 1000 to the present day.
		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 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.

	Chicago Classical Music \| An Online Community for Classical Music Enthusiasts
		At our last Classical Committee meeting, Rachel Barton Pine noted that the way these categories are defined results in very disparate types of performances being compared against each other, such that many superb recordings stand little or no chance of ever winning an award — or even being nominated for one.
		But here is a good read for classical music lovers and lovers of classical music alike.
		This got me to thinking about how some of the most interesting classical music comes as the result of different traditions mixing: whether it’s Brahms’s “Hungarian” Dances, or Dvorak’s use of Negro spirituals in the “New World Symphony”, or more recently Lou Harrison and Michael Tippet’s explorations of Javanese modes in their compositions.
