These are all the musical periods, the 5 most commonly known would be from Renaissance-Modern. Those are spoken of the most often.
Prehistoric (before writing)
Ancient before (350)
Medieval (about 350-1400)
Renaissance (1400-1600)
Baroque (1600-1750)
Classical (1740-1820)
Romantic (1820-1900)
Modern (1900-today)
Oh, there's more than just four:
Eras and Movements in Western MusicMusic historians traditionally divide the development of Western music into several major periods and movements.
Medieval (c. 500-1400)The Medieval era was the first time that composers in significant numbers began to write down music to preserve it and communicate it to others. The earliest examples of this written music come from the medieval Catholic Church, in the form of Gregorian chant. By the1400s, composers began to write polyphony. Polyphonic writing became more sophisticated as composers changed styles from the Ars Antiqua to the Ars Nova. In the 1100s and 1200s, troubadours composed the first secular music unaffiliated with the church.Gregorian chant: A single-line melody sung in unison by one or more people. Chant used religious text for its words and was written by monks in the Catholic Church.
Polyphony: Music that combines two or more lines, which are more or less independent of each other, at the same time.
Ars Antiqua: The earliest movement of written polyphony. It originated in the cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris in the 1200s.
Ars Nova: A French movement of the 1300s that greatly refined notation and polyphonic writing from the era of Ars Antiqua.
Troubadours: Wandering musicians in Medieval France who sang songs of courtly love. The troubadours made important musical innovations and were the first main source of secular music.
Four-part writing: A common configuration of four parts, often abbreviated SATB (short for soprano, alto, tenor, and bass, the four standard voice registers).
Imitation: A device used in polyphony in which one part follows another by repeating a similar or same passage played first by the other part.
Counterpoint: A device in which two (or more) melodic lines run simultaneously but neither becomes dominant over the other, so both can be heard independently.
Common practice period: The period in music from the early Baroque to the end of the Romantic in which composers used a well-defined common harmonic language. Composers from this period wrote in a style we usually associate with traditional concert music.
Homophony: A musical texture distinct from polyphony in that it sets one melody together with a subordinate melody against an accompanimental background.
Program music: Music written to follow a plot or describe a nonmusical idea. Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique, for instance, follows the course of a troubled artist's life with musical illustrations of people and events.
Nationalism: A turn toward native forms and ideas. Nationalist composers used folk melodies from their native lands and often wrote patriotic music.
Chromaticism: Use of harmonies that do not exist naturally in a key. Chromatic music sounds denser and more dissonant and often modulates to a number of keys within a single piece.
Impressionism: In music (as opposed to the visual arts), a movement founded by Debussy, who made color and texture central elements in his music
Neoclassicism: A movement, pioneered by Stravinsky in the 1920s, in which composers brought a modern perspective to older music. Frequently, composers writing in this style used traditional forms and musical language and then altered it to create a new sound. Neoromanticism is another movement that came into being a short time later.
Serialism: A method of composing, invented by Schönberg, in which all twelve notes of the chromatic scale are used in an ordered succession. Serialism can effectively destroy the feeling of key and tonality. It is also called twelve-tone, dodecaphonic, or atonal music.
Experimentalism: A movement that sought to explore the very idea of music by seeking new ways to create sounds outside of traditional instrumental playing. Experimental composers tried to create new definitions of music and redefine the audience's listening experience.
Extended techniques: Unconventional playing techniques (e.g., knocking the back of a cello, putting an oboe reed in a Trombone mouthpiece) that experimental composers pioneered in their attempts to create new sounds.
Electronic music: Music created with electronic devices instead of acoustic instruments. The first electronic instrument was the Theremin, a box that emitted radio waves and produced a unique sound similar to a violin and human voice combined. In the 1950s, composers experimented with audiotape pieces called musique concrète, which often incorporated sounds from nature with human sounds. Today, nearly any sound imaginable can be simulated electronically. Some composers work in electroacoustic media (combinations of electronic devices and live performers on instruments), while others work in exclusively electronic means.
Graphic notation: A new approach to music notation that emerged in the middle of the 20th century. Graphic notation incorporates images, charts, and shapes not found in traditional music notation to communicate the composer's wishes.
Indeterminacy: A technique in which the composer leaves certain choices to the performer, including what notes, rhythms, or speed to play. Indeterminacy introduces a level of randomness and improvisation in performance.
The baroque era made the time from 1600 to 1750. Then comes the Classical era from 1750 to 1820. The romantic era comes in from 1850 - 1920.

The main types of music are alternative rock, pop, heavy metal, country, classical, and rap.
Since Monster Hunter's music was written in Japan, it is unlikely that the soundtrack is available in America, however, if you have a good ear, you can transcribe the music yourself. For example, I transcribed the main theme for 5 trombones.
The main characteristics of heartless music include sexism, racism, and swear words. Heartless music was created for the sole purpose of making money, rather than the love of music.
