		Modernism is the name given to a series of movements (See Modernism) arising out of the idea that the 20th century presented a new basis for society and activity, and therefore art should adopt this new basis, however construed, as the fundamental of aesthetics.

		Indeed, to most people, these pieces will sound like classical music only to the extent that they generally use the same instruments one is accustomed to hearing in performances of Beethoven, Mozart or Bach.
