4. By far the most popular music
after 1955 was rock music,
which was at first called rock
and
(or 'n') roll. This music had its
beginnings in the blues,
gospel music, and jazz-
influenced vocal music
popular among African
American audiences
after World War II.
Rock appeared in the middle of the 20-th
centuries and at once entered to light
dancing genres. The main feature of this
musical style is a calling to a society and
disagreement with the habitual settled rules.
This call is shown in complex, melodious
sounding, and in deep texts, often political or
philosophical, and in external shape of
musicians, and a manner of their behaviour
on a stage. In fate electronic musical
instruments, and also computer processing
of a sound are usually used. The most
favourite tool fate of the musician is an
electroguitar. On it complex improvisations
are masterly played, and the bass-guitar and
drums are the important parts of performing
of rock-music.
The most known rock groups in the
world are "Pink Floyd", “Beatles”,
"Rolling Stones", "Deep Purple", "Yes",
"Queen", "Led Zeppelin", "Metallica"."Metallica"
5. Traditionally country musicians have been most proficient on stringed
instruments. The violin was the most popular instrument on the frontier because
of its easy portability. The banjo was adapted from the African American culture,
and the five-string model is now universally popular among performers of the
style known as bluegrass. The guitar has long been a staple of country music
bands and singers. String bass and Hawaiian guitar have been used since
the 1920s, and their modern descendants are the electric bass and the pedal
steel guitar. Drums, pianos, and electrified instruments, used as early as
the 1930s by Western swing bands, are heard on country recordings
from the 1950s.
6. In the early decades of
the 20th century the word
jazz was used to mean
most kinds of American
popular and dance
music. Since the 1920s,
however, jazz has
usually signified a
tradition in Afro-American
music that began as a
folk music in the South
and developed gradually
into a sophisticated
modern art. While
classical and rock music
have often borrowed
features of jazz, they
remain outside the jazz
tradition.
Jazz The jazz improviser creates
and plays music
simultaneously, unlike the
composer who creates
music at leisure and may
never perform it. The
improvised jazz solo may
be variations on a theme, or
it may consist of entirely
new melodies. In either kind
of solo, the player tries to
create natural, flowing
melodies. A solo, say jazz
musicians, should “tell a
little story.”
7. • Reggae is a music genre
that originated in Jamaica
in the late 1960s. While
sometimes used in a broad
sense to refer to most types
of popular Jamaican dance
music, the term reggae
more properly denotes a
particular music style that
was strongly influenced by
traditional mento and
calypso music, as well as
American jazz and rhythm
and blues, and evolved out
of the earlier genres ska and
rocksteady. Typical
instruments
• Bass, drums, guitar, organ,
brass instrument, melodica
8. • Rock and roll (often written
as rock & roll or rock 'n' roll)
is a genre of popular music
that originated and evolved
in the United States during
the late 1940s and early
1950s, primarily from a
combination of African-
American genres such as
blues, boogie woogie, jump
blues, jazz, and gospel
music, together with Western
swing and country music.
• Typical instruments: Electric
guitar, double bass or later
bass guitar, drums.
12. Difference between violin
and viola
1. The viola size is the first
difference between violin and
viola that you can notice
easily, I mean if you have the
two instruments in front of you
to compare: the viola is bigger.
13. • Another difference that can be seen between
them is about their role in orchestra. The orchestras
generally have larger sections of violin than viola
sections. While violins add to the melodic part, the
violas add up to the harmony part.
15. Violin/viola/cello
• The violin is the smallest listed, then the viola, which
is also the name of a flower. The cello is the largest
listed and has to be player standing between your
knees. As the instrument gets larger the tone of the
sound gets deeper.
16. Harp [ ]
• A person who plays
the harp is called a
harpist or harper.
Folk musicians often
use the term "harper",
whereas classical
musicians use
"harpist".
18. Flute [ ]
• A musician who plays the flute
can be referred to as a flute
player, a flautist, a flutist, or less
commonly a fluter.
• Aside from the voice, flutes are
the earliest known musical
instruments. A number of flutes
dating to about 40,000 to
35,000 years ago have been
found in the Swabian Alb
region of Germany. These flutes
demonstrate that a developed
musical tradition existed from
the earliest period of modern
human presence in Europe.
19. Oboe [ ]
• The spelling "oboe" was adopted
into English ca. 1770 from the
Italian oboè, a transliteration in
that language's orthography of
the 17th-century pronunciation
of the French word hautbois, a
compound word made of haut
("high, loud") and bois ("wood,
woodwind"). A musician who
plays the oboe is called an
oboist.
20. Clarinet [ ]
• A person who plays the
clarinet is called a clarinetist
or clarinettist. Johann
Christoph Denner invented
the clarinet in Germany
around the turn of the 18th
century by adding a register
key to the earlier
chalumeau.
21. Bassoon [ ]
• Listeners often
compare its
warm, dark,
reedy timbre to
that of a male
baritone voice
23. Trumpet [ ]
• The trumpet is used in many
forms of music, including
classical music and jazz.
• A musician who plays the
trumpet is called a trumpet
player or trumpeter.
24. French horn [ ]
• Descended from the natural horn, the
instrument is often informally and
incorrectly known as the French horn.
Since 1971 the International Horn
Society has recommended the use of
the word horn alone, as the commonly
played instrument is not, in fact, the
French horn, but rather the wider
bore German horn. However, French
horn is still the most commonly used
name for the instrument.
25. Tuba [ ]
• The tuba is the largest
and lowest pitched
brass instrument. Sound
is produced by vibrating
or "buzzing" the lips
into a large cupped
mouthpiece.
28. Accordion [ ]
• The instrument is sometimes
considered a one-man-band as it
needs no accompanying
instrument. The performer
normally plays the melody on
buttons or keys on the right-
hand manual, and the
accompaniment, consisting of
bass and pre-set chord buttons,
on the left-hand manual.
29. Saxophone [ ]
• The saxophone (also referred to
as the sax) is a conical-bore
transposing musical instrument
that is a member of the
woodwind family. Saxophones
are usually made of brass and
played with a single-reed
mouthpiece similar to that of the
clarinet
30. Synthesizer [ ]
• A synthesizer (often abbreviated "synth") is an electronic
instrument capable of producing sounds by generating
electrical signals of different frequencies. These electrical
signals are played through a loudspeaker or set of headphones.
Synthesizers can usually produce a wide range of sounds,
which may either imitate other instruments ("imitative
synthesis") or generate new timbres.
