Josquin des Pres is thought to be one of the early Renaissance composers and a great master of the polyphonic style, combining many voices to create complex musical textures. Palestrina, Thomas Tallis and William Byrd built on his ideas, composing stunning motets, masses, chanson and instrumental works.
Instruments like the bassoon and trombone gave rise to larger instrumental groupings, allowing composers more scope to explore their creative ideas.

This period has many famous composers and pieces of Western Classical music known for their musical and instrumental developments. Italy, Germany, England and France dominated the musical landscape, influencing one another.
The most celebrated composers of the time are G F Handel, Bach, Vivaldi and Purcell. Instrumental music was composed along with vocal works. The preferred harmony is tonal, and the system of keys (major and minor) is used over modality. This allowed for more complex pieces.
36
Core idea curated from:
Haydn and Mozart dominate the musical landscape of this period. Composers moved away from the polyphonic towards the homophonic, writing music that was simple and measured.
A key development is that of the Piano that replaced the Baroque harpsichord. Chamber music and orchestral music was a central quality of this era. The orchestra was firmly established and included the clarinets, trombones, and timpani. Opera became a fully-developed musical form of entertainment.
37
Core idea curated from:
Beethoven made a notable change into the Romantic Era. His genius shaped the Romantic period by redefining many of the established musical conventions.

Core idea curated from:
Polyphony is a characteristic of Western music.
It began when singers started improvising with parallel melodies, with emphasis on fourth (ex. C to F) and fifth (ex. C to G) intervals. This marked the start of polyphony wherein several musical lines were combined.
As singers continued experimenting with melodies, polyphony became more elaborate and complex.
24
Core idea curated from:
A round is a vocal piece wherein different voices sing the same melody, at the same pitch, but the lines are successively sung.
An early example of a round is Sumer is icumen in, a piece that is also an example of a six-voice polyphony. The children's song Row, Row, Row Your Boat is another example of a round.
24
Core idea curated from:
A symphony often has 3 to 4 movements. The beginning is moderately fast, the next section is slow followed by a minuet, and then a very fast conclusion.
Symphonies had its roots from Baroque sinfonias, but composers like Haydn (known as "The Father of the Symphony") and Beethoven (whose popular work includes the "Ninth Symphony") further developed and influenced this music form.

There are five types of intervals in music: major (M), minor (m), perfect (P), augmented (A), and diminished (d). They are measured by the number of half steps and whole steps, and their position in the scale.
Intervals are the foundation of harmony (paying two or more notes together) and melody (playing single notes in sequence).
546
Core idea curated from:
A music scale is a set of notes within an octave and arranged by their pitch. The notes from a scale form melodies and harmonies.
The two main types of scales are major and minor scales and can start from any note.
There are twelve minor scales with three variations: natural, harmonic, and melodic.

Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, author of Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, And What The Internet Can Tell Us About Who We Really Are evaluated every Billboard chart-topping tune released between 1960 and 2000, using data from Spotify, along with the ages of those songs' biggest fans.
He found out that the average woman's musical tastes are formed between the ages of 11 and 14, while an average man's music tastes are virtually cemented between the ages of 13 and 16.
Therefore, by our early 20s, our music tastes get locked into place pretty firmly.

Singing is not just about noise coming from your throat and releasing out of your mouth. Concentrate on singing the same song, but adding vocal inflections by manipulating your tongue, mouth, diaphragm, throat, and even nose. Recording these vocalizations and playing them back can help you to understand your body and the sounds it can produce
30
Core idea curated from:
Before you practice each song, ask yourself what emotions you'd like to convey to the listener. Then, try to interweave those emotions within each song. Work on thinking of a particular event or moment in your life that evokes emotions similar to the ones that you want to express.

Music often feels like it is part of our subconscious. It is constantly playing in the background, at the coffee shop, in the elevator, and working from home.
In 2017, Nielsen estimated that Americans spend over 32 hours a week on average listening to music. It's then not a surprise that we remember music and can easily recall lyrics and melodies.

If you’ve ever moved to a beat, joined in a chorus or felt your heart quicken to the lyrics of a song, you’ve felt the power of music. That power runs deep in the human experience, and the urge to dive fully into the sounds, to make those sounds and share them, is strong.
Most of us had musical experiences as children, whether it was singing during religious services, taking lessons that our parents supervised, or attending music clubs in school.
But playing music as an adult is different. We have pressing obligations, no supervising parents and fewer opportunities thrust upon us.

Core idea curated from:
Music brings us joy. But what else can it do? It can relax us, offer us solace, and give us a creative outlet. It can deepen our emotional experience, sharpen our hearing, and produce changes in our nervous systems that create a natural high. We’re able to enjoy tapping our feet to a beat because music fires up our neural systems through entrainment – the synchronisation of one’s own rhythms to an external musical rhythm.

Finding an instrument that feels right is your first step. Whether or not you’ve played one in the past, this is a good time to consider what suits you now.
One approach is to follow your feelings. What instruments move you? Which ones draw you in when you’re listening to music? Open your eyes and ears to the instruments you encounter and see if one moves you more than the others.

A singer's body is their instrument, intimate and unique. Your voice will change with time, and how it changes is partly up to you. With the help of a voice teacher, choir director or experienced friend, you can find your voice and develop it. Then you can explore how best to share it.
Many people begin with singing, and then learn an instrument to accompany their voices. Others play an instrument and realise they can learn to sing along with it.

When we’re new to an instrument and fumbling to make satisfying sounds, it’s more comfortable to make them in private. But some teachers argue that playing with others early is the key to learning and to sticking with it. Why? Because you’ll learn what you need to work on, experience moments of connection that keep you going, meet people who can help you, as well as get inspired and avoid the rut that can come from exclusively playing by yourself.

As many of us have probably found out the hard way, cramming for an exam in one long and intensive study session generally doesn’t work out so well. It’s not common to be able to retain information, especially on a broad or profound topic, in one sitting. Information is better retained when it is reviewed repeatedly at different intervals.
