21st Century Classical is a genre of music that combines elements of classical music with modern influences. It often features a mix of traditional instruments, such as strings, woodwinds, and brass, with electronic elements, such as synthesizers, drum machines, and samples. It often has a more experimental and avant-garde sound than traditional classical music, and may incorporate elements of jazz, rock, and other genres. It is often characterized by its use of complex rhythms, intricate melodies, and unconventional harmonies.
