WHAT IS CLASSICAL MUSIC?

When we say the words “history of classical music,” we're actually talking about the history of Western music—that is, the musical culture in Western Europe that developed in the latter part of the first millennium CE and eventually spread to the New Worlds. There are, of course, many other musical cultures, and it may be unfortunate that Western European and American cultures tend to ignore them (e.g., in music education), but the term has become an accepted and convenient shorthand and so it remains. Therefore, in this course from here forward, the term classical music will only refer to this particular cultural tradition.
