	Classical Period in Music
		Music historians, however, use the term to mean a specific style and period in music history, roughly 1750 to 1825, that followed the baroque era and preceded the romantic.
		The rococo left its mark on music in the form of light and delicate textures, profusely ornamented melodies, and an elegant sentimentality; it is often referred to as the style galant.
		The classical period in music coincided with two important developments--the emergence and spread of public concerts and the emancipation of the musician as an artist.

		The music is broken down into two categories, church music and secular music. Church music was fairly simple and was designed to beautify the liturgy through music.

		Century period consists of the time period from around 1900 to the present. The music from this period is characterized by a definite break in the aesthetic of the music being created.
		The desire to produce something different from what is traditionally defined as classical music was the catalyst for this break. This period perhaps has the most change to contend with-changes in technology, the new popular music being produced, global communications and the ability to readily record music.
