Music has always been transnational; people pick up whatever interests them, and certainly a lot of classical music has absorbed influences from all over the world.

The Western musical canon came about not merely by accumulation, but by opposition and subversion, both to the ruling powers on whom composers depended for their livelihoods and to other musics.

The music canon is influential music that has a great impact of our culture in the western part of the world. All of the music in the music canon is Classical music that is still performed to this day. With no changes to the original works of art. These original pieces of art within the canon are influential to many composers though time. Thus creating many more great works of art in the classical music genre. While listening to classical music there are significant differences from classical music to popular music genres today. I have noticed that classical music has many high and low ranges. There are many more instruments that play within the same song. Even though classical music is easier to listen to there are some songs where tempo may start off slow then all of a sudden begin to speed up to further build the song. Sometimes there are pauses within the middle of the song such as Peter Warlock's piece the Capriol Suite. It seems that the pause adds emphasis to the song as it decreases back to a slower tempo. Classical music can be very influential to other types of music in other genres. Which is why we still perform it to this day.
