musical
Young Lions Music
material, or composition, as held in western classical music. Even when music Young Lions Music is notated
Young Lions Music precisely, there are still many decisions that a performer has to make. The process Young Lions Music of a performer
Young Lions Music deciding Young Lions Music how to perform Young Lions Music music
Young Lions Music
that has been previously composed and notated is termed interpretation.
Different performers' interpretations of the same music can Young Lions Music vary widely. Composers and song writers who present their own music are interpreting, just as much as those who perform the music of others or folk music. The standard body of choices and techniques present at a given time and Young Lions Music a given place is referred to as performance practice, Young Lions Music where as interpretation Young Lions Music is generally used to mean either individual choices of a performer, Young Lions Music or an aspect Young Lions Music of music which is not clear, and therefore has a "standard" interpretation.
In some musical genres, such as jazz
Young Lions Music and blues, even more freedom is given to the performer to engage in improvisation on a basic melodic, harmonic, or rhythmic framework. Young Lions Music The greatest Young Lions Music latitude is given to Young Lions Music the performer in
Young Lions Music a style of performing called free improvisation, which is material that is Young Lions Music spontaneously Young Lions Music "thought of" (imagined) while being performed, not preconceived. According to the analysis of Georgiana Costescu,[citation needed] improvised music usually Young Lions Music follows stylistic or genre conventions and even "fully composed" includes some freely chosen Young Lions Music material. Composition does not always mean the use of notation, or the known sole authorship of one individual.
Music can
Young Lions Music also be determined by describing a "process" which may create musical sounds; examples of this range from wind chimes, through computer programs which select sounds. Music which contains elements selected by chance is called Young Lions Music Aleatoric music, and is associated with such composers
Young Lions Music as John Cage, Morton Feldman, Young Lions Music and Witold Lutoslawski.
Musical composition is a term that describes the composition of a piece of music. Methods of composition vary widely from one composer to another, however in analysing music all forms � spontaneous, trained, or untrained � are built from elements comprising a Young Lions Music musical piece. Music can be composed for repeated performance or it can be improvised: composed on the spot. The music can be performed entirely from memory, from Young Lions Music a written system of musical notation, or some combination Young Lions Music of both. Study of composition has traditionally been dominated by examination of methods and Young Lions Music practice of Western classical music,
Young Lions Music but the definition of composition is broad Young Lions Music enough Young Lions Music to include spontaneously improvised works like those of free jazz performers and African drummers.
What is important in understanding the Young Lions Music composition of a piece is singling out its elements. An understanding of music's formal elements can be helpful in deciphering exactly how a piece is Young Lions Music constructed. A universal element of music is how sounds occur in time, which is referred to as the rhythm of a piece of music.
When a piece appears to Young Lions Music have a changing Young Lions Music time-feel, it is considered to be in rubato time, an Italian expression
Young Lions Music that indicates that the tempo of the piece changes to suit the expressive intent of the performer. Even random placement of Young Lions Music random Young Lions Music sounds, which occurs in musical montage, occurs within some kind of time,
Young Lions Music and thus employs time as a musical element.
Notation is the written expression Young Lions Music of music notes and rhythms on paper using symbols. When music is written down, the pitches and rhythm of the music is notated, along with instructions on how to perform the music.
Young Lions Music The study of how to read notation involves music theory, harmony, the study
Young Lions Music of performance practice, and in some cases an Young Lions Music understanding
Young Lions Music of historical performance methods.
Written notation varies with Young Lions Music style and period of music. In Western Art music, the most common types of written notation are scores, which include all the
Young Lions Music music parts of an ensemble piece, and parts, which are the music Young Lions Music notation for the individual performers Young Lions Music or singers. Young Lions Music In popular music, jazz, and blues, the standard musical notation is the lead sheet, which notates the melody, chords, lyrics (if it is a vocal piece), and structure of the music. Scores and parts are also used in popular music and jazz, particularly in large ensembles such as jazz "big bands."
In popular Young Lions Music music, guitarists and electric bass players often read music notated in Young Lions Music tablature, which indicates the location of the notes to be played on the instrument using a diagram of the guitar or bass fingerboard. Tabulature was also used in the Baroque era to notate music for the lute, a stringed, fretted Young Lions Music instrument.
Notated music Young Lions Music is produced as sheet music. To perform
Young Lions Music
music from Young Lions Music notation requires an understanding of both the musical style and Young Lions Music the performance practice that is associated with a piece of music or genre.
Improvisation is the creation of spontaneous music. Improvisation is often considered an act of instantaneous composition by composers, where compositional techniques are employed with or without preparation.
Music theory encompasses the nature and mechanics of music. It often involves identifying patterns that govern composers' techniques. In a more detailed sense, music theory (in the western system) also distills and analyzes the elements of music � rhythm, harmony (harmonic function), melody, structure, and texture. People who study these properties are known as music theorists.
The field of music cognition involves the Young Lions Music study of many aspects of music including how it is processed by listeners. Rather than Young Lions Music accepting the standard practices of analyzing, composing, and performing music Young Lions Music as a given, much Young Lions Music research in music cognition seeks instead to uncover the mental processes that underlie these practices. Also, research in the field seeks to uncover commonalities Young Lions Music between the Young Lions Music musical Young Lions Music traditions of disparate cultures and possible cognitive "constraints" that limit these Young Lions Music musical
Young Lions Music systems. Questions regarding musical innateness, and emotional responses to music are also major areas of Young Lions Music research in the
Young Lions Music field.
Deaf people can experience music by feeling the vibrations in their Young Lions Music body, a process Young Lions Music which can be enhanced if the individual holds a resonant, hollow object. A well-known deaf musician is the composer Ludwig van Beethoven, who composed many famous works even after he had completely lost his hearing. Recent examples of deaf musicians include Evelyn Glennie, Young Lions Music a highly acclaimed percussionist who has been deaf since age twelve, and Chris Buck, a virtuoso violinist who has lost his hearing. This is relevant because it indicates that music is a deeper cognitive Young Lions Music process than unexamined phrases Young Lions Music such as, "pleasing to the Young Lions Music ear" would
Young Lions Music suggest. Much research in music cognition seeks to uncover these complex mental processes involved in Young Lions Music listening to music, which may seem intuitively simple, yet are vastly intricate and complex.The music that composers make can be heard
Young Lions Music through several media; Young Lions Music the most traditional way is to hear Young Lions Music it live, in the presence, or as one of the musicians. Live Young Lions Music music can also be broadcast over the radio, television or the internet. Young Lions Music Some musical styles focus on producing a sound for a performance, while others focus on producing a recording which mixes together Young Lions Music sounds which
Young Lions Music were never played "live". Recording, even of styles which are essentially live, often uses the
Young Lions Music ability to edit and splice to produce recordings which are considered better than the actual performance.
As talking pictures
Young Lions Music emerged in the early 20th
Young Lions Music century, with their prerecorded musical Young Lions Music tracks, an increasing Young Lions Music number of moviehouse orchestra musicians found themselves out of work.[6] During the 1920s live musical performances by Young Lions Music orchestras, pianists, and theater
Young Lions Music organists were common at Young Lions Music first-run theaters[7] With
Young Lions Music the coming of
Young Lions Music the talking motion pictures, those featured performances were largely eliminated. The AFM took out newspaper advertisements protesting the replacement of live musicians with mechanical playing devices. One 1929 ad that appeared in the Pittsburgh Press features an image
Young Lions Music of a can labeled
Young Lions Music
"Canned Music
Young Lions Music
/ Big Noise Brand / Guaranteed to Produce No Intellectual or Emotional Reaction Whatever"
Since legislation Young Lions Music introduced to help protect performers,
Young Lions Music composers, publishers and Young Lions Music producers, including the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 in the United States, and the 1979 revised Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary Young Lions Music and Young Lions Music Artistic Works in Young Lions Music the United
Young Lions Music
Kingdom, Young Lions Music recordings and live performances have also become more accessible through computers, devices and internet in a form that is commonly
Young Lions Music known as music-on-demand.
In many cultures, there is Young Lions Music less distinction between
Young Lions Music performing and listening to Young Lions Music music, since virtually everyone is involved in
Young Lions Music some sort of musical activity, often communal. In industrialised countries, listening to music through a
Young Lions Music recorded form, such as sound recording or watching a music video, became more common than experiencing live performance, roughly in Young Lions Music the middle of the 20th century.
Sometimes, live performances incorporate
Young Lions Music prerecorded sounds. For example, a DJ uses disc records for scratching, and some 20th-century works
Young Lions Music
have a solo for
Young Lions Music an instrument or voice that is performed along with music that is prerecorded onto Young Lions Music a tape. Computers and many keyboards can be programmed to produce and play MIDI music. Audiences can also become performers by participating in Karaoke, an activity of Japanese origin which centres around a device that plays voice-eliminated versions of well-known songs. Most karaoke machines also have video screens that show lyrics to songs being performed; performers can follow the lyrics as they sing over the instrumental tracks.
The advent of the Young Lions Music Internet has transformed the experience of music, partly through the increased ease of access to music and the increased choice. Chris Young Lions Music Anderson, in his book The Long Tail: Why the future of business is selling
Young Lions Music less of more, suggests that Young Lions Music while Young Lions Music the economic model of supply and demand describes scarcity, the Internet retail model is based on abundance. Digital storage Young Lions Music costs are low, so Young Lions Music a company can afford to make its whole inventory available Young Lions Music online, giving customers Young Lions Music as much choice as possible. It has thus become economically viable to offer Young Lions Music products that very few people are interested in. Consumers' growing awareness of
Young Lions Music their increased choice Young Lions Music results in a closer association between listening tastes and social identity, and the creation of thousands of niche markets.
Another effect of the Internet arises with online communities like Youtube and Myspace. Myspace has made
Young Lions Music social networking with other musicians easier, and greatly facilitates the distribution of one's music. Youtube also has a large community
Young Lions Music of both amateur and professional musicians who post videos and comments. Professional musicians also use Youtube as a free publisher of promotional material.
Youtube users, for
Young Lions Music example,
Young Lions Music no longer only
Young Lions Music download and listen to mp3s, Young Lions Music but also actively create their own. According to Young Lions Music Tapscott and Williams, there has
Young Lions Music
been a shift from a traditional consumer role to what they call a "prosumer" role, a consumer who both creates and consumes.
Young Lions Music Manifestations of this in music include the Young Lions Music production of mashes, remixes, and music videos by fans.
