Classical Music wasn't as you know it today. Today we have multiple genres spanning the entire music scene of the world. Several centuries ago Classical music was simply music. There was no disparity between what was classical and what was not. Nearly everything of the time was classical therefore it became popular from its inception. In terms of instrumental classical music, that took off at the demise of the Baroque Period and beginning of the Classical period. Rising middle-class wages allowed for a wider range of audience in virtuoso performances and public orchestras. Music was a sign of prestige and therefore those who could not perform at least attended. It was one of the primary sources of entertainment besides plays. Popularity for classical music has dwindled since the 19th century. And there is little hope it will be revived through the few neo-classical artists remaining.

Back when music was first played in a classical way, not many people knew about it. Eventually, more people discovered classical music via fliers, posters, newspaper articles or just hearing a noise from a building and feeling curious. Then, as famous pianists came to be known like Beethoven, Mozart and Bach, classical music really took off. Back then, the only music was classical or opera, and less wealthy people could watch classical performances and it was cherished.

Johann Sebastian Bach comes to mind. A very famous composer from the Baroque period of Classical Music.
