This document summarizes different genres of music magazines, including pop, rock, and classical. It notes that pop magazines typically have bright colors and images of pop singers on the cover to appeal to teenagers. Rock magazines often use darker backgrounds and simpler designs with images of rock singers to reflect the genre. Classical music magazines tend to have very subtle black and white covers featuring classical artists, as classical music appeals more to older audiences. The styles and covers of magazines differ depending on the target demographic and tone of each musical genre.
