Contemporary classical music describes music composed in the classical tradition by composers of the latter half of the 20th century and current times. Contemporary classical music incorporates technological developments of the modern era (within the recording, electronic instruments, use of computers, sound spectrum analysis) while maintaining a composition style rooted in notation. Contemporary classical music also incorporates artistic developments in film and dance.
