Music of different times, linked

Over two-hundred years separate the Classical era and modern day, it’s only reasonable to believe that music has evolved over the centuries, and it has. We now have many different genres of music, much more than there were back in the day. However, we can still see shared musical elements between the music of today and the music in the previous eras. For example, music in the 21st century used in the movie industry represented by the song “Time” by Hans Zimmer, and the second movement of “Symphony No. 94” better known as the Surprise Symphony written by Joseph Haydn for 18th century European orchestra.
