Modern Classical is known as the reimagination of classical music and its experimentation with other genres.

The different cultural and technological influences led to the transformation of the original sound, which varies from nostalgic to unusual. Combining traditional melodies with current harmonies, Igor Stravinsky and Edward Elgar are notable figures in the development of the style.

Avant-garde experiments from John Cage also helped reconceive the musical landscape. No stranger to film, modern classical includes composers such as Hans Zimmer and John Williams, who have crafted scores that showcase the orchestral and electronic worlds as one.
