General MIDI is a specification for synthesizers which imposes several requirements beyond the more abstract MIDI standard.
General MIDI was first standardised in 1991, by the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA) and the Japan MIDI Standards Committee (JMSC), and has since been adopted as an addendum to the main MIDI standard.
GM itself was later revised to become General MIDI 2, in 1999.

General MIDI 2 is a group of extensions made to General MIDI 1 in 1999, which increases both the number of available sounds and the amount of control available for sound editing and musical performance.
MIDI is almost directly responsible for bringing an end to the "wall of synthesizers" phenomenon in 1970s-80s rock music concerts, when musical keyboard performers were sometimes hidden behind banks of various instruments.
General MIDI (GM) was an attempt by the MIDI Manufacturer's Association (MMA) to resolve this problem by standardizing an instrument program number map, so that for example Program Change 1 always results in a piano sound on all GM-compliant players.
