Classical Period Music

My brand new premium course: https://pianotv.net/design Limited-time sale — 30% off only until June 6th, 2020! Today’s episode is about Classical period music, and since there’s so much to talk about, I’ve decided to split this into two videos. Honestly this subject is so dense and interesting that we could talk about it for hours and hours, but the focus today is to get a general idea of the period, an overview. Recently I did a two-parter video on Baroque period music, so if you like this video, you’ll probably dig that one as well. The Classical period happened right after the Baroque period, so I’m attempting to keep it linear. In today’s video we’re going to cover the basics of Classical style, homophony, and instrumental music. In the second part, we’ll talk about some of the genres that were innovated in the Classical period, such as the symphony, and how the music shifted in tone toward the end of the classical period. --- Blog post: http://www.pianotv.net/2016/04/classi
