The development of chorus:

The great French writer Romain Rolland said: "There is no concept of progress in art, because no matter how far we look back, we will find that our predecessors have already achieved perfection. It would be ridiculous if anyone thought that centuries of hard work have brought us closer to perfection..."

The origins of symphonic music can be traced back to a very distant history. Its name originated from ancient Greece and was the general term for the two words "harmony" and "harmony" at that time. By the time of ancient Rome, it evolved into a general term for all instrumental ensembles and ensembles.

In the 16th century, which was the European Renaissance, the name symphony was used as a symbol of all harmonic, multi-sounding instrumental music. In the early days of Baroque music, it mainly referred to the overtures and interludes in operas, oratorios, oratorios and other works.

In the early 18th century, music art developed rapidly in Europe. With the process of the European industrial revolution, music art also began to gradually become civilian and socialized. During this period, the symphony as an independent art form gradually gained a clear meaning in terms of scale and form. The Italian opera overture at that time became the basic prototype of classical symphony with its unique three sections of "fast-slow-fast".

In the mid-18th century, composers from the Mannheim school in Germany (the cultural center of southern Germany) further improved the basic form of symphony with a series of positive and innovative creations. .

The symphony orchestra was truly formed in the past few hundred years, strictly speaking, during the period when the Vienna classical music school flourished. Before that, the structure of the symphony orchestra was not perfect, and it was just an incomplete orchestra. For example, in the creations of Haydn and Mozart, the formation and scale of the orchestra are limited to small orchestras with characteristics of chamber music.
