List of music styles

List of music styles: Music can be divided into many genres in many different ways. These classifications are often arbitrary and closely related styles often overlap. Many^[who?] do not believe that generic classification of musical styles is possible in any logically consistent way, and also argue that doing so sets limitations and boundaries that hinder the development of music. While no one doubts that it is possible to note similarities between musical pieces, there are often exceptions and caveats associated. Labeling music with genres often do not reflect a specific culture, race, or time period. Larger genres comprise more specific sub genres.

This list is split into four separate pages:
