Intro

NeoClassical

Aesthetic trend which took place largely between the world wars, Neo-Classical music represented an infatuation with the perceived orderliness of Classical music as opposed to the perceived formlessness and lack of restraint of late Romantic music and the extremes of early 20th-century experimental music. Neo-Classical music involved the use of Classical (and older) forms of music such as the concerto grosso, devices such as ostinato figures and long pedal notes, and the quotation of old melodies, such as in Igor Stravinsky's ballet Pulcinella.
