Is this the world wide history of music, or just European history? What was music like in different parts of the world for each of those periods?

Way is the Jamaican national anthem being played in the background

[@CaptainGoldenhind]

Why are all examples vocal? And do you really think that the most "modernistic" composer to represent the whole century in this kind of "brief" introduction is John Williams?

[@jacobhuntley7845]

Great questions. I am a high school choir teacher, and this video was meant to be an assignment for them to go over. It was intended that my students learn specifically vocal music throughout the ages. I included John Williams as the one example because I knew my students would be familiar with his music. Of course, to include all the information on these periods, the video would have to me much longer than 7 minutes!

[@CaptainGoldenhind]

@@jacobhuntley7845 Ok, thank you for the reply. All reasons accepted!

[@dustythomas5882]

I was looking for a brief video to show my elementary students. This has good information, but the background music doesn't reflect the musical periods you're talking about, so unfortunately unusable for my purposes.
