I like to listen to classical music - from the traditions of western culture
I sometimes listen to a classical music station in my car, but can never figure out what musical instruments are used!  It sounds nice though!
Classical music is usually played on pianos
If I remember correctly from music class in high school, there were some pretty awesome composers!
Yes Mozart and Beethoven and Bach are some of the more famous ones.
Yeah, those are some that I remember!  Classical music has been around a long time, hasn't it?
yes the most precise period is from 1750-1820
Wow, that's a long time ago!  And yet it's still pretty popular I think!

Overview.
European art music is largely distinguished from many other non-European classical and some popular musical forms by its system of staff notation, in use since about the 11th century.
The term "classical music" did not appear until the early 19th century, in an attempt to distinctly canonize the period from Johann Sebastian Bach to Ludwig van Beethoven as a golden age. The earliest reference to "classical music" recorded by the "Oxford English Dictionary" is from about 1829.
home, we harboured a deep desire to preserve our musical heritage of hundreds of years. However my formal music education was in Western classical music and I have studied and played the piano. I have an intimate connection to my past, to my historical traditions and culture, and to my musical traditions as well as to Western music. Out of these influences, I was able to compose and to propose new compositional approaches to Western classical music.
