Early Music says:
I've never ever heard of such a thing as a 'statutory perpetual copyright'... -- SJK
This sentence seems untrue or at least inaccurate:
As the article explains:
Early music musicians, composers, and transcribers had a "contract" just as we do today, with contemporary musicians being trained with the knowledge necessary to interpret contemporary notation. Hyacinth 07:16, 2 Jul 2004 (UTC)
The sidebar on "eras in music history" shows the "early music" era as 1500-1750. Surely that's not what you mean. Early music starts more like 1100.
Now it claims that Early Music ends in 1600, when I've never seen a practitioner exclude the Baroque from Early Music. Where do they make this stuff up? Greg 07:56, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
True! I'll change it! Lfjslohll ( talk) 18:10, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
Why is early music said to be classical music? Early musicians generally take the attitude that they are doing pre-classical music, i.e. music up to and including the Baroque. It's classical musicians who think that early music is a kind of classical music. Greg 05:13, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
I assure you that *I* am not the one confused. Greg 07:57, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
I just noticed that this page and others defining music 'eras' need a ref. for the dates. This prompted me to look on Grove Music Online and in the Oxford Concise Dictionary of Music (to find suitable refs.) - but both state that the term 'Early Music' is frequently considered to incorporates the Baroque Era(as I'm sure you all know). Grove says the following in fact: "A term once applied to music of the Baroque and earlier periods... now commonly used to denote any music for which a historically appropriate style of performance must be reconstructed". So we need to change the date, of course there will be overlap between the common practice period, but that's how things work... This may also shed some light on the above query...?

The page used to read ( [1]): Early music is a term used to describe pre- Classical Western music, from the earliest written music (ca. 1000 A.D.) to 1500 at the earliest (Judd, 1998, p.4) and the end of the Baroque era in about 1750 at the latest. For information on early music, see the following articles:

There is NO possible way to give a citation on somethings. For example, on the fact that until a certain period music did NOT follow certain rules in writing, as is portrayed in this article. In order to properly provide a citation for that the author would have to show all works of music referred to which DID NOT follow those rules, which is quite impossible and useless... therefore I think the "citation needed" thing should be removed... I wanted to myself but I'd rather bring the subject up for discussion here first. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.253.35.112 ( talk) 23:53, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
