Question

Why do you think we discuss Western art music ( Classical music) according to historical periods but we do not generally discuss other types of music, such as folk or ethnic music, in this way?

Answer 1

Answer:They are not discussed in the same way because folkloric or ethnic music represents a specific culture, of a specific country or region. While classical music is related to the different historical periods (Baroque, Contemporary, etc).

Explanation:Folk music is popular and traditional is passed from generation to generation through speech or singing.

Classical music is a musical current produced by the delays of lyrical music of Western Europe and that is divided into periods that cover the history.
