The classical times!!
The traditions of Western liturgical and secular music, encompassing a broad period from roughly the 11th century to present times.classical music" did not appear until the early 19th century, in an attempt to "canonize" the period from Johann Sebastian Bach to Beethoven as a golden age they are the most know for their music during this period as well as Mozart. How to tell if it is classical if very hard to differ by and is difficult to list characteristics that can be attributed to all works of that type. however one may considers contemporary composers who are described as classical; or music that has certain instruments like violins, which are also found in other genres. However, there are characteristics that classical music contains that few or no other genres of music can contain.The instruments used in most classical music were largely invented before the mid-19th century (often much earlier), and codified in the 18th and 19th centuries. They consist of the instruments found in an orchestra, together with a few other solo instruments (such as the piano, harpsichord, and organ). Most of the music can be known by the song form, classical music can also take on the form of the concerto, symphony, sonata, opera,suite,symphonic poem, and others.
