Unit 12 Music –

Read the text and do the tasks that follow. Music, which plays an indispensable part in human life and is loved by almost everyone, is an arrangement of sounds that are played on instruments and/or sung. Different people, however, will prefer different kinds of music.148Classical music is mainly for a learned and serious audience. Compared with romantic music, it depends more on formal appeal than emotional stimulation. One of the best-known composers of classical music is Mozart (1756 – 1791), whose symphony No. 40 in G Minor has been loved worldwide. Pop music, in contrast, usually refers to a nonclassical type of music emerging in the early 1900s. Pop music is popular with a great variety of people because it consists of short songs with a strong beat and simple tunes easy to remember.Generations of pop music lovers Elvis Presley will perhaps never forget sweet pop songs like Papa by Paul Alka.Rock-‘n’-roll, a type of popular music developed from jazz (rooted in the musical traditions of African-Americans) and country music (the southern / western folk music of rural United States), had not appeared until the 1950s. With hits like Heartbreak Hotel, Elvis Presley (1935-1977) was known as the “King of Rock-‘n’-Roll.”The Rolling StonesFrom rock-‘n’-roll, it was not until the 1960s that rock developed. Satisfaction by The Rolling Stones is an example of this modern music with a very strong beat, based on a solo voice and (mainly) electric guitars. Unlike those types of music, folk music, transmitted orally, often has unknown composers. A folk song usually has several versions. An example of folk Songs is Auld Lang Syne, traditionally Sung at midnight on New Year’s Eve in Britain.a) Answer the following questions, 1. Who are the listeners of classical music? 2.
