Music Review    Dramatic Comedy Sit back as the curtain rises on Dramatic Comedy, a stunning collection of performance-minded, royalty free stock music, delivered in the best tradition of stage and screen. The album opens with "New Discovery", a perfect title for a track that reveals never-before-seen sights, challenge and adventure. Travelers from a distant land appear in an exotic locale and watch, mesmerized, as snake charmers and wizards gather around them. Banners unfurl as trumpets, chimes and cymbals herald their arrival. In "Epic Wonder" Shangrila is revealed as the clouds part and the brave riders make their descent into a forgotten valley. But the journey's end has not yet been reached. Fatigue and thirst will have to wait when new obstacles present themselves. Horns, bells and strings weave a magical tapestry of adventure and excitement. A mythic quest and the promise of new love spring from the sweet strains of strings, harp and horns in "Cydonia", while "Eros" paints a haunting picture at once sensuous and desolate, the perfect selection for a love scene or dramatic landscape. In "First on the Scene" the momentum builds as participants in a grand event, for peace or war, approach each other. Martial percussion recalls the mobilization of great forces. Larger than life horns, strings and chimes suggest the winds of change. As a departure from the traditional composition of earlier tracks on...Read More Royalty Free Audio: A Legal Alternative For Your Website Over the past few years, The RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) has been on a mission to stop music piracy. Although the organization has filed tens of thousands of lawsuits against infringers, these legal interventions have done little to quell illegal use of music for websites and distribution of music on P2P networks. The RIAA has therefore added another weapon to its arsenal against copyright infringement, arresting a Los Angeles man this week for posting nine unreleased tracks from an upcoming Guns N' Roses album on his website. This type of copyright infringement is not a new phenomenon: the RIAA has issued thousands of cease-and-desist letters to individuals who have uploaded music prior to its commercial release. However, this marks only the second time that the RIAA has pursued criminal charges against individuals using unreleased music for websites (the first occurred in 2006 when two men uploaded unreleased tracks from Bryan Adams). The penalties for copyright infringement cases involving illegal use of music for websites can be stiff: the arrested suspect in this case could face 3 to 5 years in prison. Although most people know that it is unlawful to upload previously unreleased music, many...Read More Royalty Free Hypnosis Music & Meditation Music Research has proven that music can provide therapeutic benefits to individuals struggling with a wide array of physical, mental, and behavioral problems. Used in conjunction with a variety of therapies, music can have a profound influence upon human behavior. Hypnotherapists and meditation professionals often incorporate music into their treatment programs. Sheri Howell of Angelite Hypnosis in Lake Orion, MI uses hypnosis music in sessions and CDs that she gives to patients: "In hypnotherapy, music is just as integral as the wording itself. The beat is important because it slows the mind down". Hypnosis music and meditation music are used not only to tap into a patient's subconscious, but also alter the body's physiological state, producing changes in patients' brains and cardiovascular systems. Because music has a tremendous impact on a patient's mental and physiological functioning, therapists should use caution when choosing music to integrate into treatments. First, therapists should analyze the tempo of the music. Hypnosis music and meditation music should have a tempo of around 60 beats per minute. Studies have shown that a patient's heartbeat synchronizes itself to the tempo of the music playing during therapy sessions. Slower tempos decrease the patient's heart rate, helping him or...Read More Additional Album Reviews   Additional Music News

Classical Music from Royaltyfreemusic.com Offering a large selection of royalty free classical music, Royaltyfreemusic.com is the definitive source for music to fit all of your needs.  Royalty free classical music is perfect for a variety of projects.  Whether you are in search of quality production music for a film or television show, impressive presentation music to wow corporate audiences, or pleasant on hold music for your customers, Royaltyfreemusic.com is certain to have the royalty free classical music that you need. What Is Classical Music? Classical music is a formal genre of music with roots in Europe.  Stylistically varied, classical music includes chamber music, operas, and symphonies, among other styles. Written for a small group of instruments that could fit into a small room, chamber music emphasizes the sound of the ensemble, not individual instruments.  For this reason, chamber music does not feature solo performances.  An opera is a dramatic composition set to music.  Operas combine instrumental music with vocal performances and include visual elements such as costumes.  A symphony is a large orchestral piece containing three or more distinct musical movements.  Mozart, Beethoven, and Haydn are among the most well-known symphonic composers. Classical music can be categorized into six musical periods, each with its own distinctive style.  The Medieval or Gothic period spanned from the 9th to the 14th century.  Influenced heavily by the church, Medieval classical music was characterized by a cappella arrangements of religious music in the form of Gregorian chants, organums, and motets.  Guillaume De Machaut and Hildegard von Bingen were two of the period’s most influential composers. Mirroring the rapid changes in arts and sciences during the 15th and 16th century, classical music evolved dramatically during the Renaissance period.  Although the church was still a dominant force, the government began to play a role in shaping classical music as secular music was created to entertain royalty.  Composers such as Josquin Des Perez, Claudio Monteverdi, and William Byrd began writing music with separate parts for different instruments such as the lute and recorder.  Motets and madrigals, musical pieces that combined text with music, were the predominant styles of classical music throughout the Renaissance period. Famous for its ornamentation, the Baroque period lasted from 1600 until 1750.  During this time, composers such as Johann Sebastian Bach, George Frederic Handel, and Johann Pachelbel composed pieces with elaborately layered melodies.  Suites, a sequence of dances in the same or similar keys, and concertos, a musical piece written for an orchestra and solo instruments, were the most popular styles of Baroque period classical music. Shunning the decorated style of the Baroque period, the music of the Classical period was simple, straightforward, and formulaic.  From 1750 until 1820, composers like Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Franz Joseph Haydn, and Ludwig van Beethoven produced masterpieces in the form of symphonies, concertos, string quartets, and theme and variations.  These compositions regularly featured the sounds of the pianoforte and the harpsichord. A prelude to the Modern period, the Romantic period of classical music emerged in 1820.  For the next 90 years, composers such as Johannes Brahms, Richard Wagner, and Peter Tchaikovsky labored over compositions with lengthy movements that enhanced the drama and emotion of classical music. The addition of modern brass and woodwind instruments to ensembles and orchestras was one of the most notable developments of the Romantic period. The sound of Modern period classical music can best be described as eclectic.  From George Gershwin’s jazz styling to Richard Strauss’s classic operas to Phillip Glass’s minimalist sound, classical music created after 1910 encompasses a wide range of musical styles.  Developments in technology during the Modern period made it possible to use computer generated electronic sounds, forever changing the face of classical music. Some Classical Music Is In The Public Domain.  Does This Mean That It Is Also Royalty-Free? Works fall into the public domain after their copyright term has expired.  According to copyright laws, many classical pieces are now considered to be in the public domain.   Although this music is copyright free, it is not necessarily royalty free.  Suppose an orchestra wants to record its own version of Beethoven’s Brandenberg Concerto No. 1.  The orchestra would be free to do so because the concerto is not subject to copyright restrictions.  However, the orchestra could copyright its version of the concerto.  In this case, the concerto is not copyrighted but the sound recording is copyrighted.  If you elected to use this version of Beethoven’s Brandenberg Concerto No. 1 in your project or business, you would be responsible for paying royalties for the copyright.  Royaltyfreemusic.com’s catalog of royalty free classical music gives users the flexibility to include quality classical music in their projects without worrying about ongoing fees or copyright restrictions. How Can I Use Classical Music In My Projects? One of the most versatile genres of music, classical music has a timeless appeal that makes it appropriate for use in a variety of different projects.  Producers often utilize classical music as production music in television programs, newscasts, films, and documentaries.   Listen closely the next time you watch your favorite movie or TV show or flip on the 6 o’clock news.  Chances are you will hear classical music playing in the background during scenes or used as bumper music to transition to commercial breaks.  Check out Royaltyfreemusic.com’s large selection of royalty free classical music when planning your next production.
