I really liked how you broke down the different eras, but this is the first time I've heard the phrase "Western Art Music". To my knowledge, no tape, CD or programme, has ever addressed it as such, and I've never even had a conversation with a fellow aficionado who uses this phrase. In India, it's easily distinguished from Indian classical music: it's called "western classical". Often, even that distinction is unnecessary, because Indian classical is broadly divided into Hindustani / Carnatic, and there's no need to title, say, a concerto, as "western classical".

There will be theory videos! However, the goal of this is mostly, as the title suggests, to be a guide for listeners, so the theory will be focused on things that will aid in and enhance the listening experience. While written theory/analysis can be fun, for this project I care way more that musical audiences are informed!

This a great video for all of us who are music students and/or just fans of "Art Music" aka. "Classical Music." Although I wanted to point out that in my Music Literature Class Faure, Strauss, Mahler, and Sibelius were part of the 20th century rather than the romantic era, as well Strauss amd Mahler were important figures of a movement in music called Maximalism which is the expansion to greater depths in the texture in compositional writing, also faure was part of the impressionism (early kinda neo-romantic at times), and Sibelius in nationalism but with the new techniques of music at the time. But anyway keep up the great work I love this channel so much greetings from a operatic baritone :).

I was thaught that Beethoven, while being in between Classicism and Romanticism, is still from Classicism. (More specifically, Viennese classicism, together with Haydn and Mozart.) I do see why you've classified him with Romanticism though. Great video!

I'm a very big fan of the artist Sufjan Stevens and I'm wondering which era or artist his "classical" album "The BQE" would be similar to. I've read many comparisons between him and Phillip Glass. Also, which kind of artist (or era) would this piano piece also from Stevens be similar to? (kzitem.info/news/bejne/qXeqvZiVcIyheW0) I would appreciate it if you can could these questions.

Also there are great album titles like "The Madrigal History Tour" which I couldn't not buy. I'm glad you enjoy/appreciate it! Renaissance music is some of my favorite (hint: there's not a lot of Western Art music that's not my favorite) As for Bernstein's Chichester Psalms, I haven't heard that yet! With that recommendation I might have my next impulse purchase planned :D

I cannot agree at all with the time limits you gave to classical music era. It did definitely not start as soon as 1700 and continued well after 1800. One has to know where the name comes from first. "Classical" came from the fact that some compositions started to well spread beyond the scope they were intended for, in terms of space and time. The composers of the time gained recognition even after their death, becoming "classics", hence the "classical" era (mostly, HAYDN, MOZART and BEETHOVEN, of course). One could say that the first composer who gained such recognition was HAENDEL (though clearly recognized as a baroque era composer), in particular in England, but it actually happened to others before such as PERGOLESI who died very young in 1736. Lot of music by others was sold under PERGOLESI's name, due to the huge popularity he gained after his own death. The Stabat Mater of same PERGOLESI is one of the first piece that got rid of the basso continuo, which is a strong characteristic of the baroque era. One could say that's where classical era started. Same PERGOLESI was the author of an opera (La Serva padrona) that started what was called "La querelle des bouffons" (Quarrel of the Comic Actors) in France in the 1750'ies, which opposed fans of traditional baroque music against the new "classical", yet to be named as such back then, that came to rise. So... yes, 20 years after his death, PERGOLESI was still considered ahead of his time. Another big factor was the "Traité de l'harmonie réduite à ses principes naturels" (Treatise on Harmony reduced to its natural principles) by Jean-Philippe RAMEAU, who defined new rules for composition, using rules of harmony which were never so clearly established before. That's the starting point that will slowly but surely get rid of things such as counterpoint, fugue and basso continuo (more typically baroque stuff, although counterpoint made several noticeable come backs from 1781 onward with HAYDN's opus 33) over time. Finally, Mannheim (a town in Germany), became the center of gathering for lot of young composers (DITTERSDORF, RICHTER, STAMITZ, and many others) who defined a lot of new stylish trends ("joyful" music, crescendo, decrescendo, mannheim rocket...) which quickly became the norm and widely spread over Europe by the time Joseph HAYDN actually started composing his first symphonies around 1757. The rest, as they say, is history. Symphonies being the key new genre that appeared back then, and raised during the 1740 (it emerged from various things, such as request for Opera overtures - called synfonia back then- to be played alone as instrumental pieces). That's in my opinion where you should point the start of classical era (yes, berfore BACH's death in 1750). Regarding the end mentioned in 1800, it's true BEETHOVEN's first piece of music that can be classified as Romantic came around that time (1803 with the 3rd symphony to be precise, one could argue the 3rd piano concerto already desserve the title). Some would argue Mozart also pointed in the right direction (I think personally HAYDN did more in that regard, but I'm digressing). But BEETHOVEN was "one of a kind" back at the time, and not so popular at first. Stating the start of romantic era meant the end of the classical one is another mistake (which curiously wasn't made for baroque and classical?). At the time of their death MOZART (1791) and HAYDN (1809) gained a huge popularity all accross Europe. And composers of the time (CLEMENTI, HUMMEL, WEBER, PLEYEL...) were hugely influenced by these two. The other early romantic composers (SCHUBERT, ROSSINI, MENDELSSOHN) were first still very classical in their compositions, and only came to something post-classical after at least 1810 (for SCHUBERT). The only composer I really have a hard time sorting in a partical era at the time is PAGANINI. That's another one a of a kind dude. People usually ranks him among the first romantics, but his violin concertos, ahead of their time it seems, are not so far from MOZART's own late piano concertos. So conclusion, classical era for me goes from something like 1740 to 1810. You are quite off this timeline. And BEETHOVEN should also be quoted as a famous classical composer, because he did compose classical music at first. The 2 first piano concertos, 2 first symphonies, first sonatas including the moonlight ranks among works from MOZART and HAYDN in terms of style and era. Other classical era music you may know without realising: BOCHERINI's menuet (kzitem.info/news/bejne/zIl7l2mqhXSVpqQ) ANGERER's toy symphony (kzitem.info/news/bejne/mGh6s4CXoJipaH4) Other classical era composers worth more recognition : Michael HAYDN (kzitem.info/news/bejne/sJxrsa5tsIiWq4I) Jan Krtitel VANHAL (kzitem.info/news/bejne/2HiLz4KFoot4m3o) Antonio ROSETTI (kzitem.info/news/bejne/jo1ok2x9n4KWZIo) (yeah, I love G Minor Sturm Und Drang Symphonies)

It just bothers me when I try to explain the music i'm listening to others. The general public won't make the difference between baroque and classical music or even a renaissance motet by palestrina. Everything is tagged "classical". That's like not making the difference between black metal and pop-rock for me.

Most Gregorian chant was not "written", but rather "written down" from an oral tradition. You completely ignore the medieval tradition of discant and organum as a written practice, as well as the hugely important genres of the mass and motet. The madrigal was hardly the first secular genre. The rules of counterpoint were always in flux, and not consistent throughout the "Renaissance". Instruments were often used in sacred music, consider reductions of polyphonic scores for lute and solo singer. You do not mention that the early 20th century notion of stylistic eras is easily just as problematic as the catch-all phrase "classical music". You ignore that many of the fundamentally Romantic genres were small-scale, consider the myriad piano miniatures. You ignore that the concept of "absolute music" belongs just as much to the 19th century as the notion of "program music", and there is a long line of programmatic instrumental music since the 17th century. All in all, very sloppy, especially as far as early music is concerned.

You make a lot of good points, and there is a lot that I would have loved to talk about, but unfortunately covering 1,000+ years of music history in a both short and accessible way demands some sacrifices. If I had a full 18-lecture semester to discuss the intricacies of music history, I could touch on a lot of that, but for most people coming to classical music with little to no knowledge, the first video about eras and their characteristics needs to be the major highlights of what they can expect to hear.
