Music notation is a system that visually represents music, whether played on instruments or sung, using various symbols, including those for sound durations and silences. Notation methods have varied across cultures and history, with modern Western notation rooted in medieval Europe's ecclesiastical uniformity efforts. Over time, notation has evolved with technological advancements and differing musical styles, from ancient symbols on stone and clay to modern computer-based score writing in the 20th and 21st centuries.
