musical material, or composition, as held in western classical Music Voice Male music. Even when music is notated precisely, there are still many decisions that a performer has to make. The Music Voice Male process of a performer deciding how to perform music that has been previously composed and notated is termed interpretation. Different performers' interpretations of the same music can vary widely. Composers and song writers who present their Music Voice Male own music Music Voice Male are Music Voice Male interpreting, just as much as those who perform the music of Music Voice Male others or folk music. The standard body of choices and techniques present Music Voice Male at a given time and a given place is referred to as performance

Music Voice Male

practice, where as interpretation is generally

Music Voice Male

used to mean either individual choices of a Music Voice Male performer, or an aspect of music which is not clear, and therefore has a "standard" interpretation. In some musical genres, such as jazz and blues, even more freedom is given to the performer to engage in Music Voice Male improvisation on a basic melodic, harmonic, or rhythmic framework. The

Music Voice Male

greatest latitude is given to the performer in Music Voice Male a

Music Voice Male

style of performing called free improvisation, which is material that is spontaneously "thought of" (imagined) while Calvary Worship Music being performed, not preconceived. According to the analysis of Georgiana Costescu,[citation needed] improvised music usually follows stylistic or genre conventions and even "fully composed" includes What Is Experimental Music some freely chosen material. Composition does not always mean the use of notation, or the known sole authorship of one individual. Music can 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 Aleatoric music, and is associated Music Voice Male with such Music Voice Male composers as John Cage, Morton Feldman, 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 Music Voice Male from elements comprising a musical piece. Music can be composed for repeated performance or it can be improvised: composed on the spot. The Music Voice Male music can be performed entirely from memory, from a written system of musical notation, or some combination of both. Study of composition has Music Voice Male traditionally been dominated by examination of methods and practice of Western classical music, but the definition of composition is broad enough to include spontaneously improvised works like those of free jazz performers and African drummers. What is important in understanding the composition of a piece is singling out its elements. An understanding of music's formal elements Music Voice Male can be helpful in deciphering exactly how a piece is constructed. A universal element of music is how sounds

Music Voice Male

occur Music Voice Male in time, which is referred Music Voice Male to as the rhythm of Music Voice Male a piece of Music Voice Male music. When a piece appears to have a changing time-feel, it is considered to be in rubato time, an Levine School Of Music Italian expression that indicates that the tempo Music Voice Male of the piece changes to Music Voice Male suit the expressive intent of the performer. Music Voice Male Even random placement of random

Music Voice Male

sounds, Music Voice Male which occurs in musical montage, occurs Music Voice Male within some kind of time, and thus employs time as a musical Music Voice Male element. Notation is the written expression of music notes and rhythms on paper using symbols. Music Voice Male When music Music Voice Male is written down, the pitches and rhythm of the music is notated, along with instructions on how to perform Music Voice Male the Music Voice Male music. The study of how to read Music Voice Male notation involves music Music Voice Male theory, harmony, the study of performance practice, Bto Music and in some cases an understanding of Music Voice Male historical performance methods. Written notation varies with style and period of music. In Western Art music, the most common types of

Music Voice Male

written notation are scores, which Music Censorship State Laws include all the music parts of an ensemble piece, and parts, which are the music notation for the individual performers or singers. In popular music, Music Voice Male jazz, and blues, the standard musical notation is the lead sheet, which notates the melody, Music On Tyros2 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 music, Music Voice Male guitarists and electric bass players often read music notated in tablature, which indicates the Music Voice Male location

Music Voice Male

of the notes to be played on the instrument using a diagram of Music Voice Male the guitar or Music Voice Male bass fingerboard. Tabulature was also used in the Baroque era

Music Voice Male

to notate music for the lute, a stringed, fretted instrument. Notated music is Music Voice Male produced as Music Voice Male sheet music. To perform Music Voice Male music from notation requires an understanding of both the Music Voice Male musical style and the performance practice Music Voice Male 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 Music Voice Male identifying

Music Voice Male

patterns that govern composers' techniques. Jerry Herman Music Information Program In Music Voice Male a more detailed sense, music theory (in the western system) also Music Voice Male distills and analyzes the elements of music � rhythm, harmony (harmonic Music Voice Male function), melody, structure,

Music Voice Male

and texture. People who study these properties are known

Music Voice Male

as music theorists. The field of music Music Voice Male cognition involves the study of many aspects of music including how it is processed by listeners. Rather Music Voice Male than accepting the standard practices of analyzing, composing, and Music Voice Male performing music as a given, much research in music cognition seeks instead to uncover the Music Voice Male mental processes that underlie these practices. Also, research in the field seeks to uncover commonalities between the musical traditions of disparate cultures and possible cognitive "constraints" that limit these musical systems. Questions regarding musical innateness, and emotional responses to music Music Voice Male are also major areas of research in the field. Deaf people can experience Music Voice Male music by feeling the vibrations in Music Voice Male their body, a process which can be enhanced Music Voice Male if the individual holds a resonant, hollow object. A well-known deaf musician is Music Voice Male the composer Ludwig van Beethoven, who composed many famous works Music Voice Male even Music Voice Male after he had completely lost his hearing. Recent examples of deaf Music Voice Male musicians include

Music Voice Male

Evelyn Glennie, a highly acclaimed percussionist who has been deaf since age twelve, and Chris Buck, Music Voice Male a virtuoso violinist who has lost his hearing. This Music Voice Male is relevant because it indicates that music is a deeper cognitive process than unexamined phrases such as, "pleasing to the ear" would suggest. Much research in Music Voice Male music cognition seeks to uncover these complex mental processes involved in listening to music, which may seem intuitively simple, yet are vastly intricate and complex.The music that composers make can be heard through several media; the most traditional way is to hear it live, in the Music Voice Male presence, or as one of the musicians. Live music Music Voice Male can also be broadcast over the Music Voice Male radio, television or the internet. Some musical styles focus on producing a sound for a performance, while others focus on

Music Voice Male

producing a recording which mixes together sounds which were never played "live". Recording, even of styles which are essentially live, often uses Music Voice Male the ability to edit and splice to produce recordings which are considered better than the actual performance. As talking pictures emerged in the early 20th Music Voice Male century, with their Music Voice Male prerecorded musical tracks, an increasing number of moviehouse orchestra Music Voice Male musicians found themselves out of work.[6] During the 1920s live musical performances by orchestras, pianists, and theater organists were common

Music Voice Male

at first-run Music Voice Male theaters[7] With the Music Voice Male coming of the talking motion pictures, those featured performances were largely

Music Voice Male

eliminated. The AFM took out newspaper advertisements protesting the replacement Music Voice Male of live musicians with mechanical playing devices. One Music Voice Male 1929 ad that appeared in the Pittsburgh Press features an image of a

Music Voice Male

can Music Voice Male labeled "Canned Music / Big Noise Brand / Guaranteed to Produce No

Music Voice Male

Intellectual or Emotional Reaction Music Voice Male Whatever" Since legislation introduced to help protect performers, Music Voice Male composers, publishers and producers, including the Audio Home Recording Act of 1992 in the United States, and the 1979 revised Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Music Voice Male Artistic Works in the United Kingdom, Music Voice Male recordings and Music Voice Male live performances have also Music Voice Male become more accessible through computers, devices and internet in a form that is commonly known as Music Voice Male music-on-demand. In many cultures, there is Music Voice Male less distinction between performing and listening to music, since virtually everyone Music Voice Male is involved in some sort of musical activity, often communal. In

Music Voice Male

industrialised countries, listening to music through Music Voice Male a recorded form, Music Voice Male such as sound recording or watching a music video, became more common than experiencing live Music Voice Male performance, roughly Music Voice Male in the middle of the 20th century. Sometimes, live performances incorporate prerecorded sounds. For example, a DJ uses disc records for scratching, and some 20th-century works have a solo Music Voice Male for an Music Voice Male instrument or voice that is performed along with music that is prerecorded onto a tape. Computers and many keyboards can be programmed to produce and play MIDI music. Audiences can also become performers by Music Voice Male participating in Karaoke, an Music Voice Male activity of Japanese origin which centres around a Music Voice Male device that plays

Music Voice Male

voice-eliminated versions of well-known songs. Music Voice Male Most karaoke machines also have video screens that Music Voice Male show lyrics to songs being performed; performers can follow the lyrics as they sing over the instrumental tracks. The advent of the Internet has transformed the experience Music Voice Male of music, Music Voice Male partly through the Music Voice Male increased Music Voice Male ease of access to music and the increased choice. Chris Anderson, in his book The Music Voice Male Long Tail: Why the future of business is selling less of more, suggests that while Music Voice Male the economic model of supply

Music Voice Male

and demand describes scarcity, the Internet retail model is based on abundance. Digital storage costs are low, so Music Voice Male a company can afford to make its whole inventory Music Voice Male available online, giving Music Voice Male customers as Music Voice Male much choice as possible. It has

Music Voice Male

thus become economically viable Music Voice Male to offer products that very few Music Voice Male people are interested in. Consumers' growing awareness of their increased choice results in a closer association between listening tastes and social identity, Music Voice Male and the Music Voice Male creation of Music Voice Male thousands of niche markets. Another effect of the Internet arises with online communities like Youtube and Myspace. Myspace has made social networking with Music Voice Male other musicians easier, and greatly facilitates the distribution of one's music. Youtube also has Music Voice Male a large community of

Music Voice Male

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 example, no longer only download and Cheers Theme Song Music listen to mp3s, but also actively Music Voice Male create their own. According to Tapscott Music Voice Male and Williams, there has been a shift from a Music Voice Male traditional consumer role to

Music Voice Male

what they call a "prosumer" role, a consumer who both creates and consumes. Music Voice Male Manifestations of this in music include the production of mashes, remixes, and music videos by fans.
