RHINEGOLD EDUCATION MUSIC & DRAMA RESOURCE CATALOGUE 2012<br />
Fire your passion for pop with our brand new book, Understanding Popular Music.<br />
The book tells the story of popular music through a study of the key themes of style, performers and<br />
instruments. These themes are woven into an integrated account of the history of pop, rock, soul,<br />
electronic and dance forms since 1950, right up to the present day, with practical examples from the<br />
hit songs of each decade. An accessible and invaluable reference resource for students and teachers<br />
of any course that includes popular music, it will aid understanding of the numerous elements that<br />
characterise popular music styles.<br />
To bring the book to life, YouTube, Spotify and iTunes playlists have been collated to make it easy for<br />
readers to fi nd the songs discussed in the book, and track timings help the reader follow the analysis.<br />
In addition, we have created a number of audio fi les demonstrating techniques and sounds – these will<br />
be free to access on the book’s <strong>com</strong>panion website.<br />
