| | Chicago Symphony Orchestra - Program Music |
| | Program music wasn't more popular than other kinds of music: none of the Romantic composers wrote program music exclusively, some went no further than the occasional picturesque title, and some, like Johannes Brahms (1833–1897), wrote virtually no program music. | | | Program music is instrumental music that attempts to tell a story, render a scene or picture in a realistic way, or convey impressions of a character, place, or event. | | | The nineteenth century, however — the period of Romanticism in music — is the period during which program music achieved the height of its popularity and prestige, as many composers sought an intimate connection between music and the other arts, including literature and painting. |

| | Without meaning to sound as if the songs are derivative in any way, the music tends to a kind of combined lyrical line that extends from American operetta and early theater with a mix of the vaudevillian song, though "popular" song style is less apparent on the surface of many of the songs. | | | Music from the American musical Yiddish theater with subsets of songs from incidental music for plays at the Yiddish Art Theater and songs from the labor-oriented depression era Arbeter Teater Farband. | | | It is not one of those musicological exercises in listening to difficult music that is "good for you" but it does bring together an amalgamation of musical styles and approaches that is always given the best attention to detail. |

| | Gujarat and Indian Music |
| | The most outstanding educationist of Indian music by evolving a graduate course of instruction which is a great improvement was Pandit Omkarnath Thakur (1897-1968) who had published a series of text books of practical instruction named Sangeetanjali. | | | Musicologists and historians trace the genesis of classical music to the Haveli Sangeet of Vallabhacharya, the pioneer of the movement which was akin to Prabhanda, a literary from peculiar to Gujarat. | | | The fascination of music for the people of Gujarat was curiously illustrated by the fact that several Gujaratis have enriched the tradition of Hindustani classical music. |
