How to Learn About Classical Music. Classical music wasn't always about violins and conductors. Singing had been going on for centuries before Pope Gregory came along, but he was the first to come up with the idea of writing music down--and, because if this, sheet music was born. Gregory gave each note that he could come up with (four in total) a corresponding letter: A through D. We still use these notes today, but E, F, G and all the half-notes between each note on the scale have been added since Gregory's time. Soon, monks started writing and singing songs using Gregory's rules.
These simple, yet meandering melodies were called Gregorian Chants. If you listen to them, they really sound like a bunch of monks singing in a monastery--spiritual, calming. A few years later, a monk named Guido of Arezzo invented the music notations do, re, mi, fa, so, la and ti, and drew them as notes on a staff. During an age when visual art and religious beliefs were being reborn, music was not about to be left out. Music History 102.
