Experimental music



Experimental music refers, in the English-language literature, to a compositional tradition which arose in the mid-twentieth century, particularly in North America, and whose most famous and influential exponent was John Cage. More loosely, the term "experimental" is used in conjunction with genre names to describe music within specific genres that pushes against their boundaries or definitions, or else whose approach is a hybrid of disparate styles, or incorporates unorthodox, new, distinctly unique ingredients. Similarly, it has sometimes been used to describe "transethnic" music: the mixture of recognizable music genres. A quite distinct sense was current in the late 1950s to describe computer-controlled composition, and the term at that time also was sometimes used for electronic music and musique concrète. "Experimental music" has also been used in music journalism as a general term of disapprobation for music departing from traditional norms.

實驗音樂是指在英文語言文學,傳統興起於20世紀中葉,特別是在北美其最著名,影響最大的是約翰凱奇。術語“實驗”用於同類型的名稱,來描述在特定類型的音樂針對其範圍或定義,否則,其方法是一種混合型的不同風格,或採用非傳統的,新的,獨特的明顯成分。同樣,有時被用來形容“transethnic”音樂:混合識別音樂流派。一種完全不同的感覺,是目前在50年代末來描述計算機控制的組成和任期,當時也有用於電子音樂和音樂學院的具體。 “實驗音樂”也被用於音樂新聞,作為一般長期的非難音樂偏離傳統規範。
