Intoduction: The early form of music

The creation of music has begun a long time ago, but a propellation of it only took place in the Middle Ages, dating from 500AD to 1400AB. That was a period where art works advanced, mostly based on religious contexts. It was also probably the start of western music. One of the earliest form of music was the gregorian chant, which was considered as sacred music. The notes were written in neume notation. However, the music slowly developed into a polyphony music. At the same time, folk music also developed by troubadours (moving singers who travel with their instruments).
