6、一下西方音乐是如何从蓝调音乐发展到流行乐的。现代流行音乐起源于奴隶制时期美国黑人的民歌。在19 世纪晚期,黑人音乐家们根据这些民歌创造了一种被称作蓝调音乐(又译布鲁斯)的音乐形式,因为这种音乐有忧伤的趋势。尽管蓝调音乐非常受欢迎,但作为一种音乐形式,它缺少变化,而且太伤感、节奏太慢,不适合跳舞时伴奏。于是,从蓝调音乐中发展出一种节奏更轻快、更活泼的音乐形式,叫作爵士乐。黑人小号手及歌手路易斯阿姆斯特朗是爵士乐的创始人之一。与其他大部分按照写好的乐谱演奏的音乐家不同,他会在演奏时即兴改变原来的曲子,以反映他演奏时的心情。其他的乐手开始模仿他的风格以及他赋予音乐的自由。在演奏时可以即兴改编音乐成为

11、 年,他录制了最原始的摇滚乐曲之一晃动、吵闹和摇滚。读文清障原文呈现This became a hit23 on the R&B charts,and then was recorded by Bill Haley and the Comets 24,a white band25,and became a hit on the pop charts.Bill Haley and the Comets then recorded Rock Around the Clock,which became the number one hit of 1955.Rock Around the Clock

16、就可能无法在广播中播出。1954 年,埃尔维斯普雷斯利为菲利普斯录制了他的第一张唱片。不到两年,普雷斯利成为世界上最闪耀的流行音乐明星,即使今日,他仍被称为“摇滚乐之王”。他有 17 首冠军单曲和 10张冠军专辑。只有一个音乐组合曾卖出更多唱片。读文清障原文呈现1960s pop musicWith sales of more than 1 billion records,the British pop group known as the Beatles was the supreme rock and roll band of the 1960s.The Beatles brought W
