Why is modern music more popular than classical music?
Many people enjoy classical music more than baroque in the same way that many people enjoy listening to the latest hits rather than something from 50 years ago. Classical music (from the classical era (1750-1820)) is a lot freer in structure than baroque music (baroque era 1600-1750). The baroque style involves things such as terraced dynamics (ex: going straight from loud to soft, no gradual diminuendos), detached quarter notes, and following different forms, allowing almost no exceptions. As musical instruments improved, society changed, and more radical ideas came out, music changed. The classical era still does not allow emotions to rule throughout the expression of the music, but there is a definite structured expression allowed. New tone combinations were put into use, and different instruments were added allowing new highs and lows in the dynamic range. Crescendos and diminuendos are evident here.
