Which Century was Considered the Age of Musical Diversity?

Musical texture in the Baroque Period (16th century) was mostly polyphonic or homophonic, and as musical instruments were added, they became richer.

This includes Classical music tunes from the Romantic period as well as other innovative sounds from the United States and even the non-western cultures.

Audiotapes and computers resulted in composers having a lot more creative freedom with the use of percussion and noisemakers making the sounds richer and refined. Music became expansive and unpredictable.

Radio and TV made music accessible to people sitting at home. Recorded music, starting with vinyl recordings, was much appreciated and is still sought after by music aficionados.

• Talented composers were sprouting all over the globe, but social and political problems stifled the musical voices in many countries. 
• The US became the centre of all musical activity, and many had to conform to their existing regime and fade away. 
• Others chose to migrate to the US and then pursue their musical goals.
