What's the difference between country music and classical music?

Classical music refers to music created under the background of European cultural traditions from the Baroque period (1600- 1750) to the early 20th century. It is different from pop music and national music and has eternal significance.

Country music appeared in the 1920s. It originated from the folk music of South China agriculture in the United States, and was first developed under the influence of traditional British folk songs. The earliest country music is traditional folk music, with simple tunes, stable rhythm and strong narrative. Different from the sad pop songs in the city, it has a strong local flavor. The lyrics of folk songs are mainly about hometown, lovelorn, vagrancy and religious belief. Singing is usually solo, sometimes accompanied by violin, banjo, guitar and other accompaniment instruments (before the mid-1950s, traditional country music bands did not have drums). The performance venues are mainly at home, churches and country fairs, and sometimes they will take part in regional tours. Isolated from the cultural life of big cities, it has been in a state of self-isolation.
