Early Music

Baroque

Classicism

Romanticism

Later music

This page is about my favorite composers, some facts about them and their eras. You’ll also find some examples of their music. There won’t be anything very serious and scholarly here. Just what I like and find interesting. Hopefully, you’ll find something you’ll like too. I’ll start with a brief introduction.

What is music, really? That’s a big question and I don’t really have any extremely exhaustive answers, but one definition is that it is the art of the Muses. The muse responsible for what we call music, was Euterpe.
