Western music

Western music is a broad category of music that includes all musical genres that use 12-note chromatic scale, including western classical music, rock and roll, and many other forms of popular music. The word western in western music is misleading; although much of this music came from Europe and North America, important contributions have come from places like Russia and Japan.
