Since 1980 popular music, or rock music as it is usually called, can be viewed as moving in two parallel ‘strands’ – rock and pop. In this unit a wide range of musical examples that mirror the course of popular music during the past 25 years are investigated. In this unit, varied examples of vocal music from the six main musical periods – medieval, renaissance, baroque, classical, romantic and twentieth century are explored. Our exploration focuses on the use of different types and combinations of voices, important vocal forms, and the use of musical elements characteristic of the particular periods.
