A music genre is a conventional category that identifies some pieces of music as belonging to a shared tradition or set of conventions. It is to be distinguished from musical form and musical style, although in practice these terms are sometimes used interchangeably. Academics have argued that categorizing music by genre is inaccurate and outdated. Music can be divided into different genres in many different ways; the artistic nature of music means that these classifications are subjective and controversial, some genres may overlap. There are varying academic definitions of the term genre itself. In his book Form in, Douglass distinguishes between form, he lists, and dance as examples of genres from the period. To further clarify the meaning of genre, Green writes, 'Beethoven's Op.
61 and Mendelssohn's Op. 64 are identical in genre – both are concertos – but different in form. However, Mozart's for, K. 511, the from his Mass, K. 317 are quite different in genre but happen to be similar in form.'
Some, like Peter van der Merwe, treat the terms genre and style as the same, saying that genre should be defined as pieces of music that share a certain style or 'basic musical language.' Others, such as Allan F.
Moore, state that genre and style are two separate terms, that secondary characteristics such as subject matter can differentiate between genres. A music genre or subgenre may be defined by the musical techniques, the style, the cultural context, the content and spirit of the themes. Geographical origin is sometimes used to identify a music genre, though a single geographical category will include a wide variety of subgenres. Timothy Laurie argues that since the early 1980s, 'genre has graduated from being a subset of popular music studies to being an ubiquitous framework for constituting and evaluating musical research objects'. Among the criteria used to classify musical genres are the of art and traditional musics.
Alternatively, music can be divided on three variables: arousal and depth.Arousal reflects the energy level of the music. These three variables help explain why many people like similar songs from different traditionally segregated genres.
Musicologists have sometimes classified music according to a trichotomic distinction such as Philip Tagg's 'axiomatic triangle consisting of'folk','art' and'popular' musics', he explains that each of these three is distinguishable from the others according to certain criteria. The term art music refers to classical traditions, including both contemporary and historical classical music forms. Art music exists in many parts of the world, it emphasizes formal styles that invite technical and detailed and criticism, demand focused attention from the listener.
In Western practice, art music is considered a written musical tradition, preserved in some form of music notation rather than being transmitted orally, by rote, or in recordings, as popular and traditional music are. Most western art music has been written down using the standard forms of music notation that evolved in, beginning well before the Renaissance and reaching its maturity in the Romantic period.The identity of a 'work' or 'piece' of art music is defined by the notated version rather than by a particular performance, is associated with the composer rather than the performer.
This is so in the case of western classical music. Art music may include certain forms of, though some feel that jazz is a form of popular music. Sacred Christian music forms an important part of the classical music tradition and repertoire, but can be considered to have an identity of its own; the term popular music refers to any musical style accessible to the general public and disseminated by the mass media. And popular music specialist defined the notion in the light of sociocultural and economical aspects: Popular music, unlike art music, is conceived for mass distribution to large and socioculturally heterogeneous groups of listeners and distributed in non-written form, only possible in an industrial monetary economy where it becomes a commodity and in societies, subject to the laws of'free' enterprise.
It should ideally sell as much as possible.Popular music is found on most commercial and public service radio stations, in most commercial music retailers and department stores, in movie and television soundtracks. It is noted on the charts and, in addition to singer-songwriters and composers, it involves music producers more than other genres do; the distinction between classical and popular music has sometimes been blurred in marginal areas such as music and light classics. Background music for films/movies draws on both traditions. In this respect, music is like fiction, which draws a distinction between literary fiction and popular fiction, not always precise. Country music known as country and western, music, is a genre of popular music that originated in the southern in the early 1920s; the is a Czech dance and genre of dance music familiar throughout Europe and the Americas.
