電聲學/电声学 樂/乐 emerged from the 混 and 组合 of 技术 from 樂/乐 實/具体 and 德国电子 樂/乐

What is 電聲學/电声学 music?
電聲學/电声学 is a name that could 描述 any 电子 技术 that 作品 with 声波

As a 创造力 风格 it can include many different 种类 and styles of 作品 包括 both of the 种类 from which it emerged 樂/乐 實/具体 and 德国电子 樂/乐

Fact
The name ‘Electroacoustic’ is descriptive of the 樂/乐 and its 技术

Electro- = 提及 to the 用 of 电子 工具 to 作品 with and 变形 声

-acoustic = 提及 to 声波 itself and the fact that this 樂/乐 is often made out of 录制 声

What does this 樂/乐 involve?
作品 of 電聲學/电声学 樂/乐 often 探索 the 质地（纹理、织体） of 声 their 音色 as composers 用 技术 to 变形 and 创作 new 声 发展 from 录制 声波

Composers of this 樂/乐 are fascinated by the beauty of 声波 and often want to 创作 new 声 or draw attention to 声 that have never been 听 before

作曲 With Sounds

New 作品 are today almost always composed using 算機/计算机 and will combine both 生成 声 and 录制 声波

The 算機/计算机 软件 作曲 with 声 is a new 工具 that allows you to experiment with 声波 on your 算機/计算机 and to 创作 your very own 作品 of 電聲學/电声学 music!

What does it 声波 like?
In truth there are many different styles of 作曲 within the 类别 of 電聲學/电声学 樂/乐

作品 will 声波 different depending on the 工具 and 技术 that the 作曲家 uses and the extent to which they want to 变形 their 录制 声

Some composers want to 创作 声 that are different from anything 听 before while others like playing with 声 that are 熟悉 to us

Fact
This 多样性（差异） of styles in 電聲學/电声学 樂/乐 is very 类似 to those that 存在 within pop 樂/乐

There are many different styles of pop 樂/乐 from Rock Metal and Folk to Hip Hop RnB and 舞 etc

So while the 术语 pop 樂/乐 can give us some idea we often need more detailed 术语 to 描述 the 作品 of 特定 艺术家

Fact
作品 of 電聲學/电声学 樂/乐 can be 表演 现场 用 a 组合 of 传统 and 电子 乐器 or can be entirely 固定 In all cases they will need 扬声器 to be fully played back


Encyclopaedia
樂/乐 in which 电子 技术 is used to 操控 eventually 产生 探索 and combine 声

電聲學/电声学 樂/乐 樂/乐 in which 电子 技术 now primarily computer-based is used to access 产生 探索 and configure 声波 材料 and in which 扬声器 are the prime 媒介 of 传送 There are two 主要 风格 聞/幻听 樂/乐 is 意图 for 扬声器 聆 and exists only in 录制 磁带 形（曲）式 磁带 compact 光盘/磁盘 算機/计算机 storage In 现场 电子 樂/乐 the 技术 is used to 产生 变形 or 触发 声 or a 组合 of these in the act of 表演 this may include 生成 声波 with voices and 传统 乐器 電聲學/电声学 乐器 or other 设备 and 控制 linked to computer-based 系统 Both 风格 depend on 扬声器 传送 and an 電聲學/电声学 作品 can combine 聞/幻听 and 现场 元素 [Emmerson and Smalley 2001]
