concerts have come a long way

In the 1800s and early 1900s a concert to them was usually a band or a pianist. Mainly a instrumental type of show. We can see that concert styles have deffinitley changed. Now a days concerts are energetic, nobody is sitting down, and there are people singing and rapping over the music. Do we still have band concerts and instrumental type concerts? Yes but people would perferto go to a rap or rock concert. When you go to a concert where its an orchestra playing people are quiet and sitting down. At a rap or rock concert people are screaming at the top of their lungs jumping up and down. I am in concert band at my school and when we have concerts people are quiet and clap when we are finish. I like band music and band concerts, but id rather go to a rap or rock concert rather than a orchestra concert because when I like music I want to scream and jump not sit there and give a 10 second clap after the orchestra finished playing.

music producing is at its peak!

Music producing is at its peak right now. The technology is advanced to where if you can't sing the programs they use willl make you sound like an angel. Ranging from catchy commercial tunes to the top hit on the bill boards.its all producers now a days.producers charge from 300 to 10,000 dollars for one track. Not adding the royalty checks that come in everytime someone uses their songs. Now to all the not so musically gifted people out there reading this you can still make money too. Youthere are programs out there with all kinds of sounds and all you got to do is mix the tracks. You don't have to have any music talent what so ever. Its all about learning the trick of the trade. Personally I don't sing but I have this program on my computer called auto tune. It tunes your voice to where you are in perfect pitch. So in my song it will sound like I am an amazing singer. When the recession hit music producers were still raking in their cash. And they always will be because the music industry is at its peak!
