This music has been in existence since the Medieval Era (as far back as Gregorian Chant and similar UsefulNotes/MedievalMusic), the Renaissance Era (complex choral music with interweaving melody lines), the Baroque Era (Bach, Handel, and Vivaldi), the Classical Era (Mozart and Haydn), the Romantic Era (Wagner, Lizst, Chopin, Brahms), and modern era, to the present day. Music history books on the subject are all in agreement on this time frame for the genre.

* LoudnessWar: Notably {{averted}}; most classical music recordings require a very broad dynamic range, so overdoing the compression would completely ruin the sound even for untrained ears. If anything, classical [=CDs=] are mastered with an even quieter noise floor than other styles.

* The '''[[TheMiddleAges Middle Ages]]''' -- c. AD 900 up until the end of the 14th century. Most of what has survived is monophonic vocal music, and much of that religious, the most notable style being [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0Rv5F88WYA Gregorian chant]] . But the most important compositions are the ''polyphonic'' vocal music (where multiple melodic lines are sung at once), which start showing up in writing from about AD 1000 onward; [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMyWnCf2Anc Pérotin]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdol8PviWKw W. de Wycombe]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Qatw5B3vc4 Philippe de Vitry]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsWZfPCK6aY Guillaume de Machaut]] are a few of the big names in this style. We also have several surviving examples of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMCA9nYnLWo secular]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYIFlAa5Bow songs]] from the latter part of the period, a good amount of it also polyphonic. By modern standards, it can be pretty weird: the common-practice tonality shows up long ''after'' the Medieval period.
