To me, a musical canon is simply a style of musical thought or expression that fits a particular mold or model. Western Art music is made distinct by the time period in which it took place(circa 1750-1820), the composers that were prominent throughout this era, and the overall sound of the compositions present in this era. The composers that I consider the "Victors" of this era include Beethoven, Bach, Brahms, and Mozart. Their work more or less set the standard of this canon and what this canon of music represents. To me, what separates classical music from music that we hear today is how engaging the music is of the classical era. The music of today have long introductions before the melodies or as with electronic music, introductions that are mainly filler until the melody. With classical music, the listener is engaged the whole time for the music tells a story that requires the listener to actively listen to what the composer is trying to tell with the music.]]> 2017-09-18 01:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188293738 cjohnson0754 https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188300578 In my opinion, this piece by Mozart perfectly encapsulates everything that the Classical Era has to offer.]]> 2017-09-18 01:52:30 UTC https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188300578 cjohnson0754 https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188301993  These genres were the “winners,” and the musicological research that followed was shaped by the value placed on these genres and their creators. -http://www.theavidlistener.com/2015/01/if-history-is-written-by-the-victors.html%20]]> 2017-09-18 02:01:48 UTC https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188301993 cjohnson0754 https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188303079 2017-09-18 02:10:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188303079 cjohnson0754 https://padlet.com/cjohnson0754/m0zl4ik1v2pu/wish/188303496 This is the Musikverein Concert Hall in Vienna, Austria.
