Music can be divided into\u00a0genres\u00a0(e.g.,\u00a0country music) and genres can be further divided into\u00a0subgenres\u00a0(e.g.,\u00a0country blues\u00a0and\u00a0pop country\u00a0are two of the many country subgenres), although the dividing lines and relationships between music genres are often subtle, sometimes open to personal interpretation, and occasionally controversial. For example, it can be hard to draw the line between some early 1980s\u00a0hard rock\u00a0and\u00a0heavy metal. Within\u00a0the arts, music may be classified as a\u00a0performing art, a fine art or as an auditory art. Music may be played or sung and heard live at a\u00a0rock concert\u00a0or orchestra performance, heard live as part of a\u00a0dramatic work\u00a0(a\u00a0music theater\u00a0show or opera), or it may be recorded and listened to on a radio, MP3 player,\u00a0CD player,\u00a0smartphone\u00a0or as\u00a0film score\u00a0or TV show.<\/p>\n
Hip hop music\u00a0has a very distinct form of vocal percussion known as\u00a0beatboxing. It involves creating beats, rhythms, and\u00a0scratching.<\/p>\n
The singer of the Icelandic group\u00a0Sigur R\u00f3s,\u00a0J\u00f3n \u00de\u00f3r Birgisson, often uses vocals without words, as does Icelandic singer\/songwriter,\u00a0Bj\u00f6rk. Her album\u00a0Med\u00falla\u00a0is composed entirely of processed and acoustic vocal music, including\u00a0beatboxing,\u00a0choral\u00a0arrangements, and\u00a0throat singing.<\/p>\n
Singer\u00a0Bobby McFerrin\u00a0has recorded a number of albums using only his voice and body, sometimes consisting of a texted melody supported by untexted vocalizations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
