泛读课程2Unit2Unit 2: Music > Section A > TextA History of Music in AmericaCountry and Folk MusicThe people living in the Appalachian Mountains are sometimes called "hillbillies." The first settlers there came from the British Isles, and they brought their folk music with them. This music, mixed with the blues, became hillbilly music.Later, as hillbilly music became more popular, it was called country music. Country songs are often sad stories of love and broken hearts. In the 1920s people listened to country music on the radio. Not all country people were farmers. Many worked in the mines and factories. They also loved country music and it became the music of the working people.During the 1930s America had many economic problems. Workers expressed their troubles in the folk music of the time. Folk songs are like country songs but they are more traditional and more serious.They don't just talk about love, they tell about the lives of ordinary people. Woodie Guthrie was a folk song writer during the 1930s. He traveled around the country and wrote songs about the poor people.During the 1950s folk music became popular again. Martin Luther King wanted to improve the lives of black Americans. He led peaceful marches to change the laws in the US. The marchers sang old folk songs like "We shall Overcome."In the 1960s many people were against the war in Vietnam. Folk singers like Bob Dylan and Joan Baez wrote anti-war songs like Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind," and other songs about theproblems of American society. Folk music continued to be the most political of all music in America.Rock 'n' RollThe 1950s were an exciting time for music in America. The economic problems of the 30s and the war of the 40s were over. America was rich again. A new group of people became important—American teenagers. For the first time in history young people had money to spend. They had a new way of dressing, new hairstyles and new dances.In the early 50s slow romantic songs were still popular. But teenagers wanted dance music with a good beat, and so they began to listen to R & B (rhythm and blues) on the black radio stations. Rock and roll music had a strong dance beat. The musicians played electric guitars and the music was loud and fast. American teenagers loved it.About the same time, the owner of Sun Record Company, Sam Phillips said "If I could find a white man who had the Negro (black) sound and the Negro feel, I could make $1 billion." He found his wish in Elvis Presley, the king of rock and roll. Elvis became a new American hero and young people copied his hairstyle, his dress, and his music.Soul, Disco and RapAfter World War II a large number of black people moved from the South to the big industrial cities like New York, Detroit, and Philadelphia. Many black people lived in poor parts of the city such as Harlem in New York. Musicians wrote and sang about life in the big cities. Life was hard but music and dancing made it a little easier.Popular black music had a strong beat for dancing. At first this music was called rhythm and blues. By the 1960s it was calledsoul.Soul music was always dance music but in the 1970s a new dance music became popular—disco. Disco is a kind of soul music, often with Latin rhythms. Discos opened up all over America. At discos, the music was on records (discs), not live. Many of the disco musicians were black, but disco dancing was popular with most Americans.In the 1980s a number of black musicians became superstars, for example: Prince, Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston. Some old stars like Tina Turner and Aretha Franklin made new hit records.Rap is a very skillful kind of fast street talk, with a strong rhythm. It began with young black people in the big cities. When rap talking is combined with music it is called rap music. Rap music became very popular in the 1980s.New and OldBy the 1970s rock music had become complex, with long guitar passages. It was not easy to dance to this music. Dance music was mostly disco, but many young people were bored with this. They preferred a new kind of rock music. It was loud and simple with a strong beat. This music was called Punk or New Wave.In 1981 a new TV station MTV was started. Twenty-four hours a day this station played music videos. These videos became very popular. Soon every hit song needed a video to go with it.The 1980s was a time of new trends, but more traditional rock music also continued to be important. Heavy metal groups, with their long hair and loud music, looked and sounded a lot like the groups of 20 years before.In the 1980s, like in the 1960s, musicians and music fansbecame concerned about many problems in the world. They were worried about the environment and about starving people. Videos like "Live Aid" were made by musicians to help solve world problems.Music of TodayToday we rely so much on technology for everything and music is no exception. There is a variety of music but the central genre is pop. There are hundreds of artists in pop music, which is why the genre is so diverse. Music of today uses technology for basically everything, even buying/downloading music. We have computers with us constantly, laptops, phones, iPods, etc. Our society is built on computers.In the present, music is written all to do with love; falling in love, breaking up, suggesting things, and an occasional other subject. Some songs have no meaning at all and are just for pleasure of dance or listening, like Lady Gaga's "Just Dance".A lot of people listen to music, few actually hear what it is saying. Going back to technology, in some songs it is used so much that there's barely any singing. Some songs are created almost all on the computer. The Black Eyed Peas' "Just Can't Get Enough" has lots of technology involved in the song and other songs.We have come very far in technology and taken a small step backward in song messages. Things will just keep getting more advanced and music will show us how.。

我们如何听音乐？艾伦·科普兰我们都按自己种种不同的能力听音乐。
但是，为了分析的方便，如果我们将整个听的过程分成几个组成部分，这一过程就会更加清楚。
在一定意义上说，我们都在三个不同的层次上听音乐。
由于缺少更好的术语，我们可以这样的称呼它们：（1）感官层次，（2）表达层次，（3）纯音乐层次。
将听的过程机械地分为这些设想的层面所能得到的唯一的好处，是对我们听的方法有更清楚的了解。
听音乐最简单的方式，是为了富有音乐性的声音本身所带有的纯粹的快感而听。
这是感官层次。
这个层次上我们听音乐并不思考，不在任何方面考虑它。
一个人做别的事情时打开收音机，心不在焉地沉浸在声音之中。
音乐的纯声音魅力，产生一种无需动脑却被吸引的思想状态。
你也许正坐在房间里阅读这本书。
设想钢琴上响起一个音符。
立刻，那个音符足以改变房间里的气氛——证明音乐中的那个声音成分是有力和神秘的东西，嘲笑它和贬低它是可笑的。
令人吃惊的事是，许多认为自己是合格的音乐爱好者的人，滥用听中的这一层次。
他们去听音乐会，为的是失去自己。
他们把音乐当成一种安慰或一种逃避。
他们进入一个理想的世界，那里人们不用考虑日常的现实。
当然，他们也不是在想着音乐。
音乐准许他们离开现实，而他们到一个地方去做梦，因为音乐做梦和做关于音乐的梦，但是从没有真正地听音乐。
是的，音乐的声音魅力是一种潜在的和原始的力量，但是，千万不要让它不合比例地侵占你的兴趣。
感官的层次是音乐中重要的层次，非常重要的层次，但是它并不组成整体。
没有必要在感官的层次上扯得更远。
它对每一个正常的人的影响是显而易见的。
然而，还有不同的作曲家使用的、对声音的不同种类更敏感的一种东西。
因为不是所有的作曲家都以同样的方法使用声音材料。
不要以为音乐的价值和它的感官魅力相等，也不要认为最动听的音乐是最伟大的作曲家创作的。
如果那样的话，拉威尔将会是比贝多芬更伟大的创造者。
这意思是说，声音成分因每一位作曲家而异，他对声音的使用构成他的风格的一个不可分割的部分，在听音乐时必须加以考虑。
我们如何听音乐？艾伦·科普兰我们都按自己种种不同的能力听音乐。
但是，为了分析的方便，如果我们将整个听的过程分成几个组成部分，这一过程就会更加清楚。
在一定意义上说，我们都在三个不同的层次上听音乐。
由于缺少更好的术语，我们可以这样的称呼它们：（1）感官层次，（2）表达层次，（3）纯音乐层次。
将听的过程机械地分为这些设想的层面所能得到的唯一的好处，是对我们听的方法有更清楚的了解。
听音乐最简单的方式，是为了富有音乐性的声音本身所带有的纯粹的快感而听。
这是感官层次。
这个层次上我们听音乐并不思考，不在任何方面考虑它。
一个人做别的事情时打开收音机，心不在焉地沉浸在声音之中。
音乐的纯声音魅力，产生一种无需动脑却被吸引的思想状态。
你也许正坐在房间里阅读这本书。
设想钢琴上响起一个音符。
立刻，那个音符足以改变房间里的气氛——证明音乐中的那个声音成分是有力和神秘的东西，嘲笑它和贬低它是可笑的。
令人吃惊的事是，许多认为自己是合格的音乐爱好者的人，滥用听中的这一层次。
他们去听音乐会，为的是失去自己。
他们把音乐当成一种安慰或一种逃避。
他们进入一个理想的世界，那里人们不用考虑日常的现实。
当然，他们也不是在想着音乐。
音乐准许他们离开现实，而他们到一个地方去做梦，因为音乐做梦和做关于音乐的梦，但是从没有真正地听音乐。
是的，音乐的声音魅力是一种潜在的和原始的力量，但是，千万不要让它不合比例地侵占你的兴趣。
感官的层次是音乐中重要的层次，非常重要的层次，但是它并不组成整体。
没有必要在感官的层次上扯得更远。
它对每一个正常的人的影响是显而易见的。
然而，还有不同的作曲家使用的、对声音的不同种类更敏感的一种东西。
因为不是所有的作曲家都以同样的方法使用声音材料。
不要以为音乐的价值和它的感官魅力相等，也不要认为最动听的音乐是最伟大的作曲家创作的。
如果那样的话，拉威尔将会是比贝多芬更伟大的创造者。
这意思是说，声音成分因每一位作曲家而异，他对声音的使用构成他的风格的一个不可分割的部分，在听音乐时必须加以考虑。
