CLASSICAL MUSIC
All over the world people listen to classical music. Classical music is difficult to describe.
It means different things to different people.
Some famous classical composers were Bach, Vivaldi, Haydn, and Mozart. In their music,
they did not tell a story or show strong emotion. They wanted to make a beautiful,
interesting design. They wanted to write lovely sounds.
Then composers started to interpret ideas. They told stories about wars, armies, and
soldiers. They wrote about religion. Sometimes they composed music for holidays. They
told love stories and showed strong emotion. Some of these composers were Beethoven,
Schumann, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Wagner, and Tchaikovsky.
Classical music stays with people a long time. Bach wrote about 300 years ago, and
Tchaikovsky wrote over 100 years.
Sometimes people close their eyes to listen to classical music. When they close their eyes,
they can see the design. They can listen to the same classical music many times and enjoy it.
Sometimes it is difficult to understand. The listener has to think about it. However, we can
