The invention of the printing press in the 15th century helped preserve the transmission of music. Which was a huge transformation at that point.
Typical stringed instruments of the Early Period include the harp, lute vielle, and psaltery, while wind instruments included the flute family shawm (an early member of the oboe family), trumpet, and the bagpipe.
The majority of these are used in the current full orchestra.

Throughout history, parents have often made sure that their children receive classical music training from a young age. Which is still done right up to this moment. Being able to play a classical instrument portrays quite a civilised standard of living, and isn't everyone look impressed if you say you play the cello? I myself would love to play an instrument in which i could be apart of an orchestra with. As i play an instrument myself, Ive been playing piano for 7 years which is obviously not as fancy.. I can say i'm a huge fan of classical music. Even though i do like playing contempory music, I am so impressed by the standard of music they wrote back a couple of hundred years ago.

Performance of classical music demands a significant level of technical mastery on the part of the musician; proficiency in sight-reading and ensemble playing, thorough understanding of tonal and harmonic principles the knowledge of performance and practice. A composer or musical work are among the most essential of skills for the classically trained musician.. And you can completely see the talent when you watch a full orchestra perform. I can't imagine how long it takes them to practice!
All I can say is that even if you think Classical music is a bit old fashioned just give it a look,cause i can make a promise with you that you won't be dissapointed.
