- 20th-century_music abstract "During the 20th-century, there was a vast increase in the variety of music that people had access to. Prior to the invention of the mass market gramophone records (developed in 1892) and radio broadcasting (first commercially done in ca. 1919-1920), people mainly listened to music at live Classical music concerts or musical theatre shows, which were too expensive for many lower-income people; on early phonograph players (a technology invented in 1877 which was not mass-marketed until the mid-1890s); or by individuals performing music or singing songs on an amateur basis at home, which required the ability to sing, play, and read music, which were skills that tended to be limited to middle-class and upper-class individuals. With the mass-market availability of gramophone records and radio broadcasts, listeners could purchase recordings of, or listen on radio to recordings or live broadcasts of a huge variety of songs and musical pieces. This enabled a much wider range of the population to listen to performances of Classical music symphonies and operas that they would not be able to hear live, either due to not being able to afford live-concert tickets or because such music was not performed in their region. The development of sound recording technologies and the ability to edit recordings gave rise to new subgenres of classical music, including the acousmatic and Musique concrète schools of electronic composition. Sound recording was also a major influence on the development of popular-music genres, because it enabled recordings of songs and bands to be inexpensively and widely distributed nationwide or even, for some artists, worldwide. The introduction of multitrack recording had a major influence on pop and rock music, because it enabled record producers to overdub many layers of instrument tracks and vocals, creating new sounds that would not be possible in a live performance.The 20th-century orchestra was far more flexible than its predecessors and used a much wider variety of instruments. In Beethoven's and Felix Mendelssohn's time in the 19th century, the orchestra was composed of a fairly standard core of instruments which was very rarely modified. As time progressed, and as the Romantic period saw changes in accepted modification with composers such as Berlioz and Mahler, the 20th century saw that instrumentation could practically be hand-picked by the composer. Saxophones were used in some 20th-century orchestra scores such as Vaughan Williams' Symphonies No.6 and 9 and William Walton's Belshazzar's Feast, and many other works as a member of the orchestral ensemble. In the 2000s, the modern orchestra became standardized with the modern instrumentation that includes a string section, woodwinds, brass instruments, percussion, piano, celeste, and even, for some 20th century works, electric instruments such as electric guitar, electric bass and/or electronic instruments such as the Theremin or synthesizer.The 20th century saw dramatic innovations in musical forms and styles. During this century, composers and songwriters experimented with new musical styles, such as genre fusions (e.g., the late 1960s fusion of jazz and rock music to create jazz fusion) and the use of new electric, electronic, and digital instruments and musical devices. Composers and songwriters explored new forms and sounds that challenged the previously accepted rules of music of earlier periods, such as the use of altered chords and extended chords in Bebop jazz. Faster modes of transportation such as jet flight allowed musicians and fans to travel more widely to perform or hear shows. The development of powerful, loud guitar amplifiers and sound reinforcement systems permitted bands to hold large concerts where even those with the least expensive tickets could hear the show. The development of relatively inexpensive reproduction of music via formats including vinyl records, compact cassettes, compact discs and, by the mid-1990s, digital audio recordings, and the transmission or broadcast of audio recordings of music performances on radio, of video recordings or live performances on television, and by the 1990s, of audio and video recordings via the Internet, using file sharing of digital audio recordings, gave individuals from a wide range of socioeconomic classes access to a diverse selection of high-quality music performances by artists from around the world.".
