The history of music would not be complete without the musical “fine art” that was created for the dominant minorities in Western Europe. Bergeron (1992) admits that it is quite a task to educate a two-term survey of Western Art music since students have no extra time for getting accustomed to the great musical masterpieces and their composers. It acquires the knowledge to distinguish which set of values will assist in selecting the pieces from the canon that are worth being carried from one generation
Mankind has gone through many challenges and hardships to get to where they presently are. As a result, modern humans are completely different from the first humans that walked on Earth. However, there has been a couple of things that have prevailed even after all these changes, and one of them is art.
