Certain musical styles or genres may emphasize or reduce some of these elements Than to stress it or neglect it completely. Music performance includes a wide range of instruments and vocal techniques ranging from singing to rap; Music is categorized into instrumental music, vocal (such as unaccompanied songs) and mixed vocals and instrumental. The word music is derived from the Greek μουσική (music; (art) goddesses of inspiration).In general, activities that depict music as an art form or cultural activity include the creation of musical works (songs, melodies, symphonies, etc.), music criticism, the study of musical history and the examination of musical aesthetics. The philosophers of ancient India and Greece defined music in two parts: melodies as horizontally arranged tones, and harmonics as vertically arranged tones. Popular sayings, such as “the balls chime” and “it’s music to my ears” symbolize the concept of music being associated with the arrangement as well as the enjoyment of hearing it. However, twentieth-century composer John Cage believed that any sound could be considered music, for example "there is no noise, only sounds".
