Question

The author of our textbook, Bruno Nettl describes music in the following way. "To be properly understood, music should be studied as a group of _________, as behavior that leads to these sounds, and as a group of ideas or concepts that govern the sound and the behavior." a. voices b. talking c. shakers d. sounds

Answer 1

Answer: d. Sounds

Explanation:

According to Bruno Netti on Ethnomusicology, Music is diverse. It always expresses a subtext determined by culture, class, gender and personality and by a society's idea of music. Evidenced by the different genres of music we have.

Alan Merriam's three part model on music suggests that music is a phenomenon that consists of three sides; sound, behaviour and ideas.

So therefore for music to be understood, it should be studied as a group of sounds, as behaviour that leads to these sounds, and as a group of ideas or concepts that govern the sound and the behaviour.
