∙ 13y agoThe ancient Greeks left enough music notation that we can reconstruct their melodies. There was a symposium in Vienna in 2005 which gathered together many of the leading scholars of ancient Greek music. The proceedings from the conference are available as "Ancient Greek Music in Performance", a book with an accompanying CD of various interpretations.
Nikolaos Ioannidis also has a CD of his interpretations of several ancient Greek pieces.
There have been some attempts to reconstruct ancient Egyptian music, but that is based mainly on speculation.
Musical notation in Europe had improved enough by the 12th century that we can perform it today and have a reasonable expectation that we are producing something reasonably close to what it sounded like 600 to 800 years ago. There are a number of Early Music ensembles that perform and record music from the Medieval and Renaissance periods. These artists generally strive for "historically informed" performance; they use precise reproductions of period instruments, tuned according to the standards of the period, and try to make their performance as authentic as possible.

∙ 11y agoThere were many composers in the so called Classical era. However the two most important ones were Franz Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Haydn established the basis for the Classical Music movement. Mozart became the apogee composer of the Classicism.
Haydn was the crucial developer of the Sonata form in symphonies, concerts and other musical forms.
Mozart developed the classical ideas to their highest level.
Conductor and pianist Daniel Barenboim says: "There are bad composers, there are mediocre composers, and there are good composers. Then there is Mozart".
This exemplifies the importance of Mozart in the development of the classical ideas.
