	Music of Spain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Music notation developed in Spain as early as the eighth century (the so-called Visigothic neumes) to notate the chant and other sacred music of the Christian church, but this obscure notation has not yet been deciphered by scholars, and exists only in small fragments.
		The music of the Christian church in Spain was known as the music of the Mozarabic Rite, and developed in isolation, not subject to the enforced codification of Gregorian chant under the guidance of Rome around the time of Charlemagne.
		Baroque music in Spain, when it arrived, was a pale imitation of Italian models; musical creativity mainly moved into areas of folk and popular music until the nationalist revival of the late Romantic era.

		Despite the presence of jazz big shots (Wynton Marsalis), world-music sensations (Orquesta Aragón), and pop superstars (Lauryn Hill), some of the most compelling music made at the 23rd edition of the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal (which ended this past Saturday) was by a group of unassuming blue-eyed and soft-spoken Norwegians.
		Influenced as much by ambient music, contemporary electronica, indigenous folk melodies, and classical minimalism as by traditional jazz improvisation, these Nordic artists are bringing a frosty, restrained sensibility that registers with their geographic and cultural climate.
		Call it a musical convergence of cultural/ethnic traits; at the northern edge of the Western world, these Norwegian sound sculptors draw more on background noise — Aarset’s playing sounded by turns like crashing waves, jet-engine roar, and a skipping CD player — than on the world of traditional harmony and melody.

	Product Review
		The CD I use to separate the "I am" from the "I wanna be" amps and speakers is the Telarc version of Copland's Fanfare to the Common Man. The opening bass drum thuds practically took the roof off the listening lab, with no audible distortion.
		When we turned the Aragon up even more, then of course, we could hear the clipping with the brass instruments in the Telarc recording, but only at SPL that a person shouldn't be listening to anyway.
		I would consider cone speakers with, perhaps, silk dome tweeters to be the appropriate speakers for this amplifier, unless you have a CD player with a very laid back high end.
