Music History deals with music from different places and periods like classical music and ethnic music, music by African Americans, Latin Americans, and Asian Americans. This course offers a study on the historical musicology of orchestral and chamber music as well as music from the medieval, renaissance, baroque, and romantic periods.. This study will provide the right knowledge and understanding of how the history and evolution of music have influenced today's modern music.

Exploring music from different periods will help students and musicians attain a much deeper emotion and understanding of music. It will help them improve their knowledge and make a significant contribution to their musical vocabulary. Although modern artists may feel that it is unnecessary to go back and recap the periods of music to play good music, some may disagree. This is because of the great downfall of music in the 21st century. In fact, the greatest music of all time was most probably composed between the 16th century and 20th century.

During these four years, a large number of musicians who were geniuses and masters of art appeared. They took music to its highest potential and made the evolution of music extraordinary. However, it appears that most artists now place more emphasis on the lyrical aspect rather than the musical aspect of a piece of music. Still, there are many musical geniuses all over the world right, but the issue is not about how great they are, but how the world has lost sight of their talent. This is the great downfall of music in the 21st century.
