The term classical refers to music that is performed only in symphonies.
Why was the classical era called absolute music?
While the term "absolute music" is most commonly applied to the classical era (and also to the Romantic period), the classical period was not defined by being absolute music. Absolute music is music that is not created for an outside purpose, not to be accompanied by a dance, or a play, but to exist on its own, to be performed alone, perhaps in a concert hall. Unlike program music, it does not tell a story, or represent anything. The term was usually applied to instrumental music without vocals. To define classical music by one of its many types of music would be absurd, so while the classical era included many pieces of absolute music, it also included program music, and opera; the Classical era is not exclusively made up of absolute works.

What type of music is classical music?
Classical music is a broad term of music of the western culture. It is a combination of the Western Art music that began in the Medieval period, typically called the common practice period, and most regional musical styles and genres. It is the music of the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic eras, particularly the 18th and 19th centuries. Some of the main genres of classical music are symphonies, concertos, sonatas, chamber music and solo instrumental performances.
When did classical music ended?
the classical era of music ended when the baroque era began, often arbitrarily set at 1825 "Classical" music itself as a genré of music has never ended and most likely will continue indefinitely. +++ Other way round: Baroque predated Classical, which in turn gave way to the Romantic then Modern styles. I believe there was also a short late-Baroque fashion called "Rococco" [sp?] in ornamental work as well as music, but you rarely hear the term in its musical context.
