Classical music refers to a long tradition of music that spans several centuries, typically characterized by its structured forms, complex harmonies, and orchestral arrangements. It includes various styles and periods, such as Baroque, Classical, and Romantic, featuring composers like Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Classical music is often performed in concert halls and is known for its emphasis on instrumental performance and composition. Film music, on the other hand, is specifically composed to enhance the storytelling and emotional impact of movies. It includes background scores and songs that accompany scenes, helping to convey mood and atmosphere. Composers like John Williams and Hans Zimmer have created iconic scores that have become integral to the films they accompany, blending orchestral and electronic elements to engage audiences.
