	American roots music - Pictures
		Roots musical forms reached their most expressive and varied forms in the first two to three decades of the 20th century.
		The Great Depression and the Dust Bowl were extremely important in disseminating these musical styles to the rest of the country, as Delta blues masters, itinerant honky tonk singers and Latino and Cajun musicians spread to cities like Chicago, Los Angeles and New York.
		American roots music is a broad category of music including country music, bluegrass, gospel, ragtime, jug bands, Appalachian folk, blues, Tejano and Cajun and Native American music.

		At any rate, it must be stressed that not only does the emergence of the category of sound deeply affect the acoustic qualities of sound and the forms and structures of the musical object, but also acoustic perception, musical composition and performance, and everyday musical practices and behaviours are involved.
		This is particularly true with regards to both the sound object in itself (its forms and structures) and the ways in which such object is produced, composed, performed and listened to.
		Are there any relation between the mutations in the sound objects and those in the musical practices of composition and/or reception?

		An NEH spokesman said the agency found that few high school and college recipients of the grants went on to humanities careers and that the academic community was split over supporting PhD candidates who seemed unable to finish their dissertations.

	Definitions of Style - Opera and Concert Music
		Among the few elements able to tie this large category together are the use of Western instruments and compositional forms and an emphasis on the creation of musical works, primarily for contemplative listening.
		This broad category includes symphonies, chamber works, operas, art songs, experimental and electronic works from the fringes of the avant-garde, and other forms of “classical” music.
		Among the principal African-American composers who have worked, and still work, in this category are William Grant Still (1895–1978), Ulysses Kay (1917–1995), George Walker (born 1922), Hale Smith (born 1925), T. Anderson (born 1928), Olly Wilson (born 1937), and Anthony Davis (born 1951).

	Tonality of Kin Za Za music quest of KINZAZA
		Also submerging my self into tonal meditations on the image helped me to realize the dangers of different forms of art materialism and the uncritical application of rules.
		However, if image and tonality serve certain functions in our mental life then study of it is beneficial for developing alternative ways of "hearing picture" and "seeing sound" for some if not for all as a kind of mind tuning.
		This category could thus be called "image as tonality".

	Table of Contents and Excerpt, Schade-Poulsen, Men and Popular Music in Algeria
		Although music can be said to be descriptive of emotions (i.e., it is "different" rather than "deeper" or "more profound" than other forms of expression), I began to favor the idea that from a logical point of view music and songs cannot be verbalized because—as a category of art forms—they are of a nonverbal nature.

	Encyclopedia: Ritornello
		Ritornello seeks to rescue certain compositions from the "serious music" category and return them to their proper place among the basic needs of men and women, as a universal language, by using small and even the smallest musical forms (the song, the dance) in their own elegance and rawness: a Baroque-Romantic "Return".
		Both ritornello and strophe are tonally closed units which are self-contained thematically, the musical relationship between the two not being predetermined.
		At one extreme lie the ritornellos that are note-for-note the same as the strophes; at the other, those written in a contrasting metre that have no obvious connection beyond a common tonality.

	Glossary of Poetic Terms from BOB'S BYWAY
		A category of artistic, musical or literary composition characterized by a particular form, style or content.
		The prevailing conventions of their time strongly influence writers to select content, forms, style, diction, etc., which are acceptable to the cultural expectations of the public.
		Since it is a very flexible form, the writer not being hampered in the expression of thought or syntactic structure by the need to rhyme, it is used extensively in narrative and dramatic poetry.

	Music genre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A music genre is a category (or genre) of pieces of music that share a certain style or "basic musical language" (van der Merwe 1989, p.3).

	Musical Forms - Song
		Monophonic song became less important in art music after circa 1450, but the old forms with their imagery of courtly love remained popular in the polyphonic songs of French and Netherlands composers as late as the 16th century, when they disappeared in favour of the Chanson and the Italian Frottola and Madrigal.
		A far-reaching division occurred in the early 19th-century song repertory between a large 'popular' category (recreational song for a mass middle-class market, song for edifying the lower and poorer classes, folksong etc) and a smaller 'serious' type which started primarily with Schubert.
		In France Schubert's songs contributed to the rise of the Melodie, the French counterpart to the lied, brought to perfection by Fauré, Duparc and Debussy.

	Musical Forms - Sonata
		Among sonatas in the smaller second category are those based on a programme, like Liszt's Après une lecture de Dante, fantasia quasi sonata, or those which experiment with structure, such as the same composer's single-movement Piano Sonata in b Minor.
		Only towards the end of the period, in the mature violin sonatas of Mozart and Beethoven, and in the latter's cello sonatas, are string and keyboard instruments treated as equals.
		The break with tradition is evident both in those sonatas by Bartók, Stravinsky, Poulenc and Hindemith which look back to a much earlier age and in the piano sonalas of Barraqué and Boulez, which have no links of form or genre with any previous Sonatas.

		After 1700 the 'solo' sonata, for one melody instrument and bass, became more popular; violin, flute, oboe and cello were the most favoured instruments.
		The order of movements in the Sonata da camera ('chamber sonata') was less standardized, but many examples follow the order of the four main dances of the Baroque suite: allemande, courante, sarabande, gigue.

	Western music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Western music is a broad category of music that includes all musical genres that use a 12-note chromatic scale, including Western classical music, rock and roll, and many other forms of popular music.
		Western music developed out of the creatively fertile framework of Western philosophy that had its birthplace in ancient Greece.
		The word Western may be misleading; although much of this music came from Europe and North America, important contributions have come from places like Russia, Japan, and Australia.

	A Disciplinary Map for Verse Study
		Verse is not composed of absolute quantities and pitches, they say; therefore, representations of musical rhythms have no place in the representation of verse rhythms.
		The major gesture in poetry, this theory of verse function claims, is to semanticize the temporal significances of its linguistic forms and to temporalize the spatial significances of its linguistic meanings and their fictional representations.
		As a result, while the center of the tradition of comment on verse has always claimed that a poem's meter is primarily concerned with its sound/voicing and with that voicing its linguistic prosody, this has been seriously misguided, a category mistake of major proportions.
