Working out whether or not you need to face the composition.

Classical music should only be music written in the Classical Era: the period from the 1750s to the 1820s. This was the era of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Joseph Haydn and Ludwig van Beethoven, among others.

You should only use classical formatting for your RouteNote release if you’re performing a piece of classical music as it was written.

If you’re uploading an EDM track that’s based around a famous section of a piece of classical music, or one line in your track uses a well known riff from a classical piece, you don’t need to follow classical release formatting guidelines!
