That is a purely subjective question that will get a purely subjective answer from any Classical Music lover you ask. If you ask ten different classical music lovers that question, you will get ten - minimally nine - different answers.

What are the some of the achievements of beethoven?
I was never a great fan of classical music or anything but I thought the most beautiful piece was the moonlight sonata.I guess the greatest achievements would be The Symphony No. 9 in D minor,Completed in 1824, the symphony is one of the best-known works of the Western classical repertoire. Among critics, it is universally considered to be among Beethoven's greatest works, and is considered by some to be the greatest piece of music ever writtenThe maddest thing about it I guess was the fact that he was completely deaf before he composed and wrote his greatest masterpiece.If that's not an achievement... What is?
What style of music is classical music?
About the only way to know is to listen to it. Answering this question in words is like describing the taste of salt to someone who never ever tasted salt. Listen to Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, and Bach. Then you'll have an idea of the style of classical music.
Are Classical music melodies in African music?
Technically, no. Classical music is it's own genre, and from a certain time period (~ 1759 - 1830). It is also 'Western music', while 'African music' is not. Thus, they are two completely separate entities. However, that does necessarily not mean that certain musical ideas present in classical music are not present in African music, because music can do whatever it wants and show up where ever it pleases. It simply means that these ideas are not intentionally placed in the music - it was just a coincidence.
What type of music is Messiah For Unto Us?
classical music composed by German composer George Handel based on the Isaiah book profecy of the birth of Christ. For unto us a child is born unto us a child is given. and the government shall be among his shoulder and his name, shall we call him, the mighty lord the ever lasting father, the king of kings.
Which music genres were influenced by classical music?
Classical music, as defined as the musical period dating from 1750-1825 (depending on your view as Beethoven's work as classical or romantic in his later years), has inspired many types of music. Directly following the Classical Period was the Romantic Period (1825-1900) which was followed by the Impressionistic Period and so on. Each preceeding area, by nature of musical evolution, had an impact on the period thereafter. Classical music continues to inspire musicians today. Who has not heard of Mozart or Beethoven's (extreemly overplayed) Moonlight Sonata? (Pity most people never listen to the entire work!) Thanks to the form developed throughout the classical period, we have ways of intelligently discussing music and utilizing it in an orderly fashion (or, once a proper understanding of the rules has been achieved, completely disregarding the 'rules' to create something entirely unique.) In closing, I do not believe that all of the specific genre's of music that have been inspired by classical music can be named simply because it impossible to ask every musician that has ever lived, "Were you ever inspired by classical music?" All in all, while the direct impact of classical music on a particular style of music may not be immediately visable, it is certain that classical music has molded and encouraged music as a whole, and, without that influence, I am certain we would not enjoy some of the great music we have today.
What is the first classical music work ever recorded?
It's hard to place which exact work was first recorded, but Joachim was the first to record.
Which composer wrote music that served as the high point of the classical period?
Most music scholars would scoff at such a question. The classical period is far too complex to be distilled into categories of best and worst. In terms of the Classical Period, Mozart and Beethoven are regarded as the best of the best, yet take that with a grain of salt for there is no true best.In terms of the overall Classical music, J.S. Bach is a true unparalelled composer who we have never seen since and will likely never see again. Hats off to Bach. In my mind, he is the greatest composer who ever lived and the pinnacle of Classical music entirely.
Mozart was famous for?
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) was a composer of classical music.Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozartcomposed over 600 works, many acknowledged as pinnacles of symphonic, concertante, chamber, piano, operatic, and choral music.

Was stegman's concerto ever finished?
Stegman's concerto was actually composed for the film: "Class of 1984" Timothy van Patten composed that 45 seconds of heavenly music but left it right there. Sad, but true.
What are Characteristics of Franz Joseph Haydn's music?
Deviating from the counterpoint style in Baroque period, Haydn wrote many of his compositions in Galant style. He was the pioneer in emerging the string quartet genre. His introduction to classical style is well illustrated by his 104 symphonies and 84 string quartets.
How did the baroque period morph into the classical period?
How did disco morph into rap? There was too much going on in the world of music at that time to ever come up with a definitive answer to that question.
Who made classical music popular?
Johann Sebastian Bach's style strongly influenced both Mozart (who is considered, in many ways, to be the epitome of a Classical composer) and Beethoven, who provided a transition between Classical and Romantic music.
