Within the broad movement of new-age music, neoclassical new-age music is influenced by and sometimes also based upon early, baroque or classical music, especially in terms of melody and composition. The artist may offer a modern arrangement of a work by an established composer or combine elements from classical styles with modern elements to produce original compositions. Many artists within this subgenre are classically trained musicians. Although there is a wide variety of individual styles, neoclassical new-age music is generally melodic, harmonic, and instrumental, using both traditional musical instruments as well as electronic instruments. Similar neoclassical elements can often be found within other genres besides new-age music, including electronic music, minimalist music, post-rock music and neoclassical dark wave music. The neoclassical new-age genre can be traced back to the origins of new-age music in the 1970s. For example, Mannheim Steamroller's ''Fresh Aire'' and Vangelis's ''Heaven and Hell'' (1975) are two early examples of this genre. While new-age music gradually came more and more to emphasize inspiration, relaxation, spirituality, and positive feelings, neoclassical new age has tended to emphasize artistic and aesthetic expression using classical idioms drawn chiefly from the Romantic period. == Notable artists and composers == * Nox Arcana * Ólafur Arnalds * Balmorhea * Hennie Bekker * Blackmore's Night * Sarah Brightman * Harold Budd * Clogs * Suzanne Ciani * Heather Dale * Mychael Danna * Bill Douglas * Kyle Bobby Dunn * Ludovico Einaudi * Chris Field * Nils Frahm * Michael Hoppé * Jóhann Jóhannsson * Michael Jones * Bradley Joseph * Yuki Kajiura * Peter Kater * Brian Kelly * Kevin Kern * Sandeep Khurana * Fariborz Lachini * Ingram Marshall * Pieter Nooten * Mike Oldfield * E.S.
