Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjOJpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Music</a> is a particular sound produced by actions such as singing, whistling, playing an instrument, playing recorded music, and so on. Music has certain features that distinguish it from random noise (though recognizing them may depend upon a specific cultural background); such features usually include variations of pitch over time (i.e., melody), multiple (somehow) related pitches sounding at one time (i.e., some kind of harmony), and/or some regular temporal pattern to the component sounds (i.e., rhythm). Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjOJpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Music</a> include the debut performance of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, Leonard Bernstein's rendition of the Ninth Symphony with the BPO in Berlin in 1989, a particular playing of a particular CD of Bernstein's 1989 Ninth in Berlin, and the Messiah sing-in in Austin, TX, in 1995.

Initially often known as 'jump blues' to its fans, R&B was commonly referred to in the mainstream (i.e. white, middle-class) culture as 'race' music, due to the fact that almost all of its performers were African Americans. Compared to straight Blues, with which it shares chord structures, riffs, and lyrical themes, R&B tends to be louder and faster, uses more electrical instruments, and is often horn-driven. Influential practitioners of R&B include Louis Jordan, Big Joe Turner, Ruth Brown, Ike Turner, Big Mama Thornton, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, and Ray Charles. alternative music The collection of all alternative music.

Note that, despite the use of the word `Thing' in the name of this constant, it refers to the sound alone, not to the thing that makes the sound (e.g. if one's CD player is pumping out music, the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjIvpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SoundInformationBearingThing</a> is the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjOJpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Music</a>, not the player).

Music has certain features that distinguish it from random noise (though recognizing them may depend upon a specific cultural background); such features usually include variations of pitch over time (i.e., melody), multiple (somehow) related pitches sounding at one time (i.e., some kind of harmony), and/or some regular temporal pattern to the component sounds (i.e., rhythm).
