Modern Classical can get weird and does it even exist, Contemporary classical music, post-classical music, Classical contemporary are all said to be composers who formed their own weird sounding bright dark moody ideas for their times, strange new Form and Structure, mix of rhythms, all 12 tones instead of a Major or Minor or Modal center, sometimes it was just Piano other times a Variety of Sounds Orchestration, it could be a Composer for a movie or someone exploring a new idea and Instrumentation, the Continuation of Modernism, while Classical music generally refers to the old artform music of the harmonic music of the Western world, somewhat related to the harmonies of the Church but different to Ancient music, Music of Rome or ancient Greece, it covers the musical Renaissance era lasted from 1400 to 1600 and Baroque but also from the medieval era, the Romantic era, to the 21st century, Modernism trend of Classical Music and Post Modern Classical music may have or may not have ended with the 2 World Wars. From Baroque we see music influence Baroque era, keyboard music played on the harpsichord and pipe organ, the counter point on piano became increasingly popular, strings or violin becoming part of an ensemble or orchestra, new ways to approach harmony, there is still debate about 'definitions' and when certain eras or styles started, some even wonder if Computer music can be considered New-Classical as it contains the same harmony functions of composition.

Final Fantasy XII Music, Hitoshi Sakimoto composed most of the game's soundtrack its usually Nobuo Uematsu. I don't really know all this game stuff but yeah his music is kind of a big deal...Nobuo Uematsu maybe had some influence on XII music but he was starting to finish and go his own way, has since composed music as a freelancer for other games, 2018, Uematsu announced that he would take a hiatus in order to recover from work fatigue, which led to him being hospitalized. He composed the main theme for 2020's Final Fantasy VII Remake, "Hollow". Sakaguchi said that Uematsu's work on 2021's Fantasian could be his last major game score due to health issues. In a video posted to the Fantasian Twitter account on October 15, 2024, Uematsu announced that this was his last project as a video game composer. This was later clarified on his Twitter account that he was not retiring from video game music entirely. Hitoshi Sakimoto composed most of the game's soundtrack. Hitoshi Sakimoto tried to avoid copying Uematsu's style from previous Final Fantasy soundtracks. soundtrack was nominated for a British Academy of Film and Television Arts award for Best Original Score. Final Fantasy XII Original Soundtrack has sold 31,000 copies as of January 2010. It reached #7 on the Japanese Oricon charts, and stayed on the charts for six weeks. The album received mixed reviews from critics. Jared's review from Square Enix Music Online cited that the soundtrack "utilizes ambiance, power, intensity and beauty" and termed the album to be "amazing", though he felt that the lack of melody "hurts this soundtrack" and that some of the tracks were "bare of inspiration". Meghan Sullivan of IGN thought that the composer was "trying too hard to evoke emotion" and that many of the tracks were "over-the-top and bombastic", though she did feel that there were certain tracks that "managed to be stirring". She also stated that Uematsu's only work for the soundtrack, "Kiss Me Good-bye", is a "strong end to a surprisingly trite collection". The album contains 11 tracks handpicked by Hitoshi Sakimoto, including versions of "Theme of Final Fantasy XII" and "Chocobo FFXII Arrange Ver. 1" that were ultimately not used in the game.
