The bright sounds of trumpets ring out, punctuating the sweet melodies of the violins. The guitarist steps forward and begins belting out the lyrics to a son, or traditional Mexican folksong. Meanwhile, a guitarron—a huge bass guitar—provides a steady rhythm, accented by the much smaller five-string vihuela. This is mariachi music! Mariachi music originated hundreds of years ago in colonial Mexico.
To begin with, the 15th and 16th centuries mark the commencement of European colonization and the integration of American and European culture. Countless Europeans and American Indians were influenced by one another, throughout the Columbian Exchange. Granted, the Native Americans suffered immensely, but there are more importantly numerous significant advantages to be noticed because of European migration. The Columbian Exchange led to the introduction of various products and sources of food, the merging of different groups of people, and transformations in American government and economy. Without the combination of European and American Indian culture, life today would be incredibly less progressive and different.
From receiving heavy criticism due to a variety of factors to being the most popular musical genre for Canadians during the Great Depression, jazz music has been responsible for uplifting people’s spirits, shaping cities and changing the face of music. Prohibition and racial tensions in the United States attracted talent, whether immigrants were seeking employment in film or pursuing a career in jazz. The Golden Age of Radio also contributed to jazz’s success, leading jazz to be the most popular genre of the 1930s. It is often forgotten that Canada is home to some of the greatest jazz musicians of all time, like Oscar Peterson. Jazz is not only an American concept, contrary to popular
Americans had rarely accepted outsiders as equals, and that was the case with immigrants coming to the U.S in the 1840s to the 1920s. A time in America where immigrants were not considered inferior to native white Americans did not exist. The hatred of anything non-American, especially with the coming of World War I in 1914, would only cause more Americans to despise immigrants. Part of this was rooted simply in racism, which existed towards groups other than African Americans, but much of it was simply that Americans considered themselves the chosen people while everyone else was below them. Thus, despite immigrants being accepted into America, those immigrants were still treated far worse than white citizens between the 1840s and 1920s, for the prejudice against them was obvious even in the laws created.
The musical phenomenon corridos came about in the 1800s. However a dramatic increase of this music occurred until the Mexican Revolution. The Mexican Revolution started on November 20, 1920. The revolution started because of a very corrupt government that was ran by Porfirio Diaz. His 34-year term called El Porfiriato, was violating the principle and ideals of the Mexican Constitution (EDSITEment).
Music was mostly listened to by soldiers in World War I ( Hooper ). For example, some songs that soldiers listened to were, “Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag”, “Keep the Home Fires Burning”, and “Oh! How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning” ( Hooper). Music was mostly essential for teenagers and dancing events ( Barrett).
Mr. Underwood handed me four book all about music history. They were called “Music Cultures of the Pacific, the Near East, and Asia” by William P. Malm, “Twentieth-Century Music: An Introduction” by Eric Salzman, “Music
This starts the age of Blacks being a mainstream in American culture. By 1900s and 1910s banjos helped with the creation of ragtime music. Ragtime is a type of lively music that is often played on the piano and banjo and that was very popular in the U.S. in the early part of the 20th century. This type of music was based in the Black Midwest. One of the greatest Scott Joplin (lived in the great state of Missouri) stated that the banjo is one of the greatest contributors to ragtime music.
In his 1941 essay On Popular Music, Theodor Adorno describes popular music as “cheap commercial entertainment, (…) patterned and pre-digested” (in Storey, 2009: 70). He compares his time’s popular music, such as jazz, to what he defines as ‘serious’ music – classical works. He claims that the listeners of popular music “are distracted from the demands of reality by entertainment which does not demand attention either” (in Storey, 2009: 70). Is he by this stating that the listeners are simply just following the stream without paying attention to what they are really listening to? In this essay I will in relation to examples and critics of Adorno’s work show what he means by this quote from his essay - which is perceived as a crass criticism of the Western popular music in contrast to the ‘serious’, classical music.
The effects of 1970s music The smiley face is now known as the emoji but back in the 70´s was when it first introduced.

I. The violin is an important historical instrument even used by the kings of France and prince of Hungary. This instrument evolved from Asia with the instrument fithele. We get the word fiddle from the word fithele. Although the fithele evolved from Asia, it was mostly used by Europeans in the ninth century.
Non-Jewish music has come a long way. Hundreds of Rabbi’s have inspired and restricted the music and have turned it into what it is today. Contrafactum is an important word in the history of Jewish music since it describes the use of other melodies and replaces its original text with a new text. Many Rabbis used this technique but many others were opposed to it. Starting very early in the 11th century, R. Mosheh Ibn Ezra discusses the use of musical instruments in his Book of the Garden.
Development of music history from Medieval period to Baroque Period Music exists in every known cultural group of the world and it is likely to have existed among the ancient ancestral communities. Music may have started in Africa, having existed for at least 55,000 years before evolving into an essential constituent of human life. Different people have different perspectives towards music. For instance, some may take music as jazz set, an orchestral symphony, an electronic beat or even a simple thing as the chirping of birds. Music has both positive and negative effect on humans and it depends on how it is applied.
The Philippines has always had a rich musical history. It takes its roots from the indigenous tribes of the Philippines, who used it as a way to pass on epics and stories about gods and heroes, a way to celebrate good harvests, festivals, weddings and births, a way to mourn the dead, to court women, and a way to praise the gods. This music was then enriched by the Philippines’ western colonizers. The Spaniards imparted the zarzuela (called sarswela in the Philippines) and the rondalla, adding more Spanish touches to Filipino folk songs. The Americans, on the other hand, influenced the Philippine music scene by introducing pop and rock, eventually leading to the creation of “Pinoy pop”, which included a wide variety of forms like dance tunes, ballads, rock n’ roll, disco, jazz, and rap.
