Concert Music
Created primarily for listening
Its sounds must be interesting and satisfying or else they will be ignored or forgotten

Ordinary ≠ Extraordinary
Ordinary: “Here today, gone tomorrow”
Extraordinary: “Here today, here tomorrow”

“I know what I like”“I like what I know”
People almost always like the music they are familiar with
It’s difficult to like something you hardly know
Learning about music you do not know will open up a much larger musical world

Listening to Music
You will listen to music much better if you
Realize that hearing and listening are not the same
