Heavy metal (often referred to as metal ) is a genre of rock music [ 1 ] that developed in the late 1960s and early 1970s, largely in the United Kingdom and in the United States. [ 2 ] With roots in blues rock and psychedelic rock , the bands that created heavy metal developed a thick, massive sound, characterized by highly amplified distortion , extended guitar solos, emphatic beats, and overall loudness. Heavy metal lyrics and performance styles are generally associated with masculinity and machismo . [ 3 ] The first heavy metal bands such as Led Zeppelin , Deep Purple and Black Sabbath attracted large audiences, though they were often derided by critics, a status common throughout the history of the genre. In the mid-1970s Judas Priest helped spur the genre's evolution by discarding much of its blues influence; [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Motörhead introduced a punk rock sensibility and an increasing emphasis on speed.

Aeolian mode
Modern Aeolian mode on A. Play The Aeolian mode is a musical mode or, in modern usage, a diatonic scale called the natural minor scale . The word "Aeolian" in the music theory of ancient Greece was an alternative name (used by some later writers, such as Cleonides) for what Aristoxenus called the Low Lydian tonos (in the sense of a particular overall pitching of the musical system—not a scale), nine semitones higher than the lowest "position of the voice", which was called Hypodorian . [ 1 ] In the mid-16th century, this name was given by Heinrich Glarean to his newly defined ninth mode, with the diatonic octave species of the natural notes extending one octave from A to A—corresponding to the modern natural minor scale). [ 2 ] Up until this time, chant theory recognized eight musical modes : the relative natural scales in D, E, F and G, each with their authentic and plagal counterparts, and with the option of B-flat instead of B-natural in several modes.

Minor sixth
Pythagorean minor sixth on C Play , four Pythagorean perfect fifths. In classical music from Western culture , a sixth is a musical interval encompassing six staff positions (see Interval number for more details), and the minor sixth is one of two commonly occurring sixths. It is qualified as minor because it the smaller of the two: the minor sixth spans eight semitones , the major sixth nine.
In music theory , the tritone is strictly defined as a musical interval composed of three adjacent whole tones . [ 1 ] For instance, the interval from F up to the B above it (in short, F–B) is a tritone as it can be decomposed into the three adjacent whole tones F–G, G–A, and A–B. According to this definition, within a diatonic scale there is only one tritone for each octave . For instance, the above-mentioned interval F–B is the only tritone which can be formed using the notes of the C-major scale.
Tritone
Perfect fourth
In classical music from Western culture , a fourth is a musical interval encompassing four staff positions (see Interval number for more details), and the perfect fourth ( Play ) is a fourth spanning five semitones . For example, the ascending interval from C to the next F is a perfect fourth, as the note F lies five semitones above C, and there are four staff positions from C to F.
Just major third. Pythagorean major third. In classical music from Western culture , a third is a musical interval encompassing three staff positions (see Interval number for more details), and the major third ( Play ) is a third spanning four semitones . Along with the minor third , the major third is one of two commonly occurring thirds. It is qualified as major because it is the larger of the two: the major third spans four semitones, the minor third three.

Antonio Vivaldi
Antonio Vivaldi in 1725 Antonio Lucio Vivaldi Italian pronunciation: [anˈtɔːnjo ˈluːtʃo viˈvaldi] (4 March 1678 – 28 July 1741), nicknamed il Prete Rosso ("The Red Priest") because of his red hair, was an Italian Baroque composer, Catholic priest, and virtuoso violinist, born in Venice. Recognized as one of the greatest Baroque composers, his influence during his lifetime was widespread over Europe. Vivaldi is known mainly for composing instrumental concertos , especially for the violin , as well as sacred choral works and over forty operas. His best known work is a series of violin concertos known as The Four Seasons .
Richard Wagner
Wilhelm Richard Wagner ( pron.: / ˈ v ɑː ɡ n ər / ; German: [ˈʁiçaʁt ˈvaːɡnɐ] ; 22 May 1813 – 13 February 1883) was a German composer, theatre director, polemicist , and conductor primarily known for his operas (or, as some of his later works were later known, "music dramas"). His compositions, particularly those of his later period, are notable for their complex textures , rich harmonies and orchestration , and the elaborate use of leitmotifs —musical phrases associated with individual characters, places, ideas or plot elements. His advances in musical language, such as extreme chromaticism and quickly shifting tonal centres , greatly influenced the development of classical music ; his Tristan und Isolde is sometimes described as marking the start of modern music. Unlike most opera composers, Wagner wrote both the libretto and the music for each of his stage works.
Johann Sebastian Bach
Portrait of Bach in his old age, Haussmann , 1748 Johann Sebastian Bach [ 1 ] (31 March [ O.S. 21 March] 1685 – 28 July 1750) was a German composer, organist, harpsichordist, violist, and violinist of the Baroque period . He enriched many established German styles through his skill in counterpoint , harmonic and motivic organisation, and the adaptation of rhythms, forms, and textures from abroad, particularly from Italy and France.Tipper Gore , cofounder of the Parents Music Resource Center The Parents Music Resource Center (PMRC) was an American committee formed in 1985 with the stated goal of increasing parental control over the access of children to music deemed to be violent, have drug use or be sexual via labeling albums with Parental Advisory stickers. The committee was founded by four women: Tipper Gore , wife of Senator and later Vice President Al Gore ; Susan Baker, wife of Treasury Secretary James Baker ; Pam Howar, wife of Washington realtor Raymond Howar; and Sally Nevius, wife of former Washington City Council Chairman John Nevius . They were known as the "Washington wives" – a reference to their husbands' connections with government in the Washington, D.C. area. The Center eventually grew to include 22 participants.
