My favorite music

Of all kinds of music, I love rock and roll best. Maybe some people say it's too loud, but if you really put your heart into it, I think you will probably change your idea. In the so-called noisy singing and melody, rock singers express their life experiences, such as happniness and sorrow, love and hate, hope and puzzle, ideal and reality. Each time when I feel upset and depressed, I'd like to listen to rock music, especially by the Beatles, Elvis Presley and Beyond. I'll find myself deeply lost and completely free, then I'll calm down and face up to all the hardship and difficulty in my life and work.

Music can be divided into genres in many different ways. These classifications are often arbitrary and controversial, and closely related styles often overlap. Many do not believe that generic classification of musical styles is possible in any logically consistent way, and also argue that doing so sets limitations and boundaries that hinder the development of music. While no one doubts that it is possible to note similarities between musical pieces, there are often exceptions and caveats associated. Labeling music with genres often do not reflect a specific culture, race, or time period. Larger genres consist of more specific subgenres.

Classical music is a broad term that usually refers to mainstream music proced in, or rooted in the traditions of Western liturgical and secular music, encompassing a broad period from roughly the 9th century to present times. The central norms of this tradition became codified between 1550 and 1900, which is known as the common practice period.

European music is largely distinguished from many other non-European and popular musical forms by its system of staff notation, in use since about the 16th century. Western staff notation is used by composers to prescribe to the performer the pitch, speed, meter, indivial rhythms and exact execution of a piece of music. This leaves less room for practices, such as improvisation and ad libitum ornamentation, that are frequently heard in non-European art music (compare Indian classical music and Japanese traditional music) and popular music.

The public taste for and appreciation of formal music of this type waned in the late 1900s in the United States and United Kingdom in particular. Certainly this period has seen classical music falling well behind the immense commercial success of popular music, in the opinion of some, although the number of CDs sold is not indicative of the popularity of classical music.

The term "classical music" did not appear until the early 19th century, in an attempt to "canonize" the period from Johann Sebastian Bach to Beethoven as a golden age. The earliest reference to "classical music" recorded by the Oxford English Dictionary is from about 1836. Many writers feel that "classical" is an inappropriate term for mainstream and avant-garde music written since the latter part of the 19th century; hence the common usage of scare quotes.

Rock music is a loosely defined genre of popular music that entered the mainstream in the mid 1950s. It has its roots in 1940s and 1950s rhythm and blues, country music and also drew on folk music, jazz, and classical music.

The sound of rock often revolves around the electric guitar or acoustic guitar, and it uses a strong back beat laid down by a rhythm section of electric bass guitar, drums, and keyboard instruments such as organ, piano, or, since the 1970s, synthesizers. Along with the guitar or keyboards, saxophone and blues-style harmonica are sometimes used as soloing instruments. In its "purest form", it "has three chords, a strong, insistent back beat, and a catchy melody."

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, rock music developed different subgenres. When it was blended with folk music it created folk rock, with blues to create blues-rock and with jazz, to create jazz-rock fusion. In the 1970s, rock incorporated influences from soul, funk, and latin music. Also in the 1970s, rock developed a number of subgenres, such as soft rock, glam rock, heavy metal, hard rock, progressive rock, and punk rock. Rock subgenres that emerged in the 1980s included New Wave, hardcore punk and alternative rock. In the 1990s, rock subgenres included grunge, Britpop, indie rock, and nu metal.

A group of musicians specializing in rock music is called a rock band or rock group. Many rock groups consist of an electric guitarist, lead singer, bass guitarist, and a drummer, forming a quartet. Some groups omit one or more of these roles and/or utilize a lead singer who plays an instrument while singing, sometimes forming a trio or o; others include additional musicians such as one or two rhythm guitarists and/or a keyboardist. More rarely, groups also utilize stringed instruments such as violins or cellos, woodwind instruments such as saxophones, and brass instruments such as trumpets or trombones.

Fusion or, more specifically, jazz fusion or jazz rock, is a musical genre that developed in the late 1960s from a mixture of elements of jazz such as its focus on improvisation with the rhythms and grooves of funk and R&B and the beats and heavily amplified electric instruments and electronic effects of rock. While the term "jazz rock" is often used as a synonym for "jazz fusion", it also refers to the music performed by late 1960s and 1970s-era rock bands when they added jazz elements to their music such as free-form improvisation.

After a decade of development ring the 1970s, fusion split into different branches in the 1980s. While some 1980s performers continued the improvisatory and experimental approaches of the 1970s, others moved towards a lighter, more pop-infused easy-listening style called smooth jazz which often included vocals. Since the 1990s, some fusion bands have also incorporated electronica, hip hop, and heavy metal.

Fusion albums, even those that are made by the same group or artist, may include a variety of styles. Rather than being a codified musical style, fusion can be viewed as a musical tradition or approach. Some progressive rock music is also labeled as fusion. Fusion music is typically instrumental, often with complex time signatures, metres, rhythmic patterns, and extended track lengths, featuring lengthy improvisations. Many prominent fusion musicians are recognized as having a high level of virtuosity, combined with complex compositions and musical improvisation in complex or mixed metres.

Pop music is a music genre that features a noticeable rhythmic element, melodies and hooks, a mainstream style and a conventional structure.

The term "pop music" was first used in 1926 in the sense of "having popular appeal" (see popular music), but since the 1950s it has often been used colloquially to designate an ostensibly separate musical genre, sometimes perceived as a "lighter" alternative to other forms of popular music, such as rock and roll.

⑥ 谁帮我写一段关于爵士乐的英文介绍

jazz:爵士乐
Jazz is an original American musical art form that originated around the start of the 20th century in New Orleans, rooted in African American musical styles blended with Western music technique and theory. Jazz uses blue notes, syncopation, swing, call and response, polyrhythms, and improvisation.

European Jazz
Outside of the United States the beginnings of a distinctly European jazz started emerging. At first this came mostly in France with the Quintette Hot Club de France being among the first non-US bands of significance to jazz history. The playing of Django Reinhardt in particular would be important to the rise of gypsy jazz, which is one of the earliest genres to start outside the US.

爵士乐，一种起源于非洲的音乐形式。

爵士乐缘自比它更早出现的一些美国黑人音乐（如蓝调，福音歌曲等），而这些音乐是美国黑人根植于其非洲音乐传统的基础上结合他们在现实中的遭遇创作出来的。早期布鲁斯主要表现黑人的悲惨境遇和底层生活状态，大多比较凄苦，福音歌曲主要是（向上帝）祈求平安，希望得到救赎。爵士乐在其发展过程中除了有黑人音乐的根源外，还吸收了如古典音乐，民族音乐等诸多音乐元素，逐渐形成了今天多门多类的爵士乐，所传递的内容也更为多样，不光只是早期的“黑人风格”。

(8)爵士音乐的英语阅读扩展阅读

Jazz起源：19世纪期间，音乐是美国南部种植园黑人奴隶们表达自我生活和情感的重要手段。从19世纪末开始，爵士乐以英美传统音乐为基础，混合了布鲁斯、拉格泰姆及其它音乐类型，是一种“混血”的产物。

美洲的黑人音乐保存了大量非洲特色，节奏特色明显，而且保留了集体即兴创作的特点。这种传统与新居住地的音乐，大部分是声乐，结合起来，结果诞生的不仅仅是一种新的声音而是一种全新的音乐表达形式。
