What is the future development trend of music?

American pop music, as the main body of European pop music, is mainly developed on the basis of traditional music, folk music and black music in Europe and other countries. With the gradual evolution and development, new forms have emerged, such as jazz, Japanese hutong songs, country music, ragtime blues, rock music and so on. Pop music is different from serious music, because serious music often has profound ideological connotation and some special knowledge levels, which requires the audience to appreciate and taste with their own knowledge and cultivation. For the audience, pop music is short, popular and catchy to sing. It doesn't need more specialization, and it can be understood only by understanding music and perceptual knowledge.

American pop music is more entertaining and commercial. Its self-entertainment comes from African music tradition. The most influential, such as jazz, blues and rock music, all originated from black music.

In the early years, most immigrants came to the United States from all over the world, generally voluntarily, and they were basically willing to integrate their own culture with American culture. Except for black people. They were forced to come to this country as slaves. They "have nothing but chains, but they remember the rich traditions of African dance and music." Black slaves are not allowed to talk while working on the farm, but they can sing. They rely on incomprehensible labor trumpets and songs to convey information and exchange feelings with each other. Through this way of expression, they vent their pains and grievances, thus gradually forming black music with black characteristics. Black music is constantly changing during its formation, including absorbing white music elements and producing blues, jazz and other forms. The original rock music was black music "rhythm and blues", and some people in the west called rock music "a form of the lower class resisting authority"

1, sir

/kloc-At the end of 0/9, jazz first developed in New Orleans. The main sources of jazz are blues and ragtime music. The original meaning of Bruce is sadness and melancholy, which evolved from black labor songs. Most of Bruce's lyrics mainly reflect the life of black people. Each lyric adopts a three-sentence structure, and the second sentence repeats the first sentence. In the musical structure, AAB's musical form is usually 4/4 beats slow. The scale form of his songs often uses three levels and seven levels, and the syncopation rhythm is more. Bruce's singing is very free, and the singer can imitate some other voices in daily life according to the singing content to express the singer's emotions. The accompaniment instruments of blues songs generally include guitar, banjo and so on. Later, many other musical instruments were gradually added. Bruce has gone through different stages of development, such as country blues, classical blues and urban blues.

There is no fundamental difference between ragtime music form and blues, and its most obvious difference is roughly two points. First, compared with the pure blues, ragtime seems to be more "cultured" music. It is a kind of black piano music, and many players have received some formal music training. Because the piano is inconvenient to carry, it is decided that there must be suitable occasions for singing this music form, usually in pubs. The second is the rhythm characteristics of Ragtime. It often adopts a continuous syncopated rhythm. On the piano, players often play regular strong and weak beats with their left hand and melodies with more complicated syncopation rhythm and rhythm with their right hand, thus creating a sense of wit and humor. This form of music is deeply loved by the American people because of its sense of humor and active nature. Later, ragtime songs came out one after another.

When African-American musicians play blues or ragtime music in the form of a wind band, a new music form is born, which is jazz.

Jazz has been changing in style since its birth. There are not only musicians' own exploration, integration and innovation of different styles, but also their dissatisfaction with the commercialization of jazz. For example, after the traditional jazz in New Orleans in the 1920s, swing music, big band, cold jazz and free jazz appeared in the 1930s. The representative figure of jazz is louis armstrong, whose works include West Side Blues and The Power of Crying. Other delegates include Duke Ellington and Davies. Generally speaking, early jazz was relatively simple and gradually developed into more complex. The main reason is that more and more musicians with professional music training are involved, which makes professional music creation skills and jazz creation integrated. Nevertheless, the characteristics of jazz based on black music still exist, that is, the continuous syncopation rhythm, the special instrument tone, the playing method and improvisation in performance.

Jazz has been controversial since its birth, but its influence has gone far beyond pop music itself. We can find traces of jazz in the works of many serious western musicians in the 20th century. These musicians include Debussy, Ravel and Stravinsky. American composer Gershwin's rhapsody in blue and An American in Paris are examples of jazz blending into modern serious music.

2. Pan Ting Hutong Songs

/kloc-At the end of 0/9, there were many music publishing companies on 28th Street (between Fifth Avenue and Broadway) in new york, USA. All companies let salesmen play the piano there all day to attract customers. The piano sounds like a tinplate, hence the name "Pan Ting Hutong". Pan Ting Hutong once became the focus of American pop music, and it also formed the era when pop music flourished and the symbol of music style. It lasted nearly half a century.

Some of the early works of Pan Ting Hutong Song follow the musical style of American pop composer Foster, whose music is nostalgic and sentimental, but most of the songs are cheerful and humorous, and the lyrics are basically about love. In the middle and late period of Pan Ting Hutong songs, the musical styles and expressions are more diversified, the artistry is also strengthened, and the rhythm characteristics of black music are absorbed, and its melody and harmony tend to be complex. It is basically the white people in the city who spread Pan Ting Hutong songs.

3. Country music

Country music was first called folk songs, and the formation of this music form began in the agricultural areas of the southern States of the United States in the 1920s. It was handed down by British immigrants, and naturally there are many English folk songs. Later, it was developed under the influence of other national music, and it was not popular in the United States until after World War II, and it was called country music.

In the early days of the formation of country music, its style has a lot of local flavor, and its lyrics involve family, love, vagrancy, religion and so on. Its songs are narrative and take the form of segmented songs, and the music accompaniment is usually violin, banjo or guitar.

4. Rock music

Since the 1950s, pop music has shown a diversified trend. With the progress of science and technology, the emergence of electro-acoustic instruments and the influx of a large number of rural residents into cities have injected rich fresh blood into urban pop music and other folk music, and promoted the development of rock music. At that time, a movie called "A Messy Blackboard" attracted people's attention. In this film, there is a theme song of black "Rhythm and Blues" called "Vibrating, Quacking Rock", and its spread marks the emergence of rock music that later swept the world.

The main music style of rock music is the fusion of black music and southern white country music. Its form is mainly singing, supplemented by electric guitar, saxophone, electric bass, keyboard music and jazz drums. The obvious feature of rock music is the continuous and forward dance rhythm, which consists of jazz drums playing the first and third beats of 4/4 beat, while other musical instruments such as electric guitar playing the second and fourth beats.

Early rock singers included Presley, Berry, Domino, Liu Fusi and the Avery brothers. 19 6 4, the British Beatles (also translated as "Beatles") performed in the United States for the first time, which aroused enthusiastic response. The main content of their singing is to express love, but they also oppose war and violence. At that time, there was a wave of anti-Vietnam War and anti-racial discrimination in the United States, and rock music played a great role in this wave. Few Americans who grew up in the 1960s had nothing to do with rock music. The singing of rock music has influenced the artistic taste of modern Americans. The famous rock bands formed in the 1970s and 1980s in the United States include punk, Rolling Stones, Sol, Heavy Metal, Rip and Pop. Its famous rock stars include Michael Jackson, janet jackson and Houston.
