Composers today use a wider variety of sounds than ever before, including many that were once considered undesirable noises. Composer Edgard Varese

44、 (1883-1965) called thus the liberation of sound.the right to make music with any and all sounds. Electronic music, for examplemade with the aid of computers, synthesizers, and(5) electronic instrumentsmay include sounds that in the past would not have been consdered musical Environmental sounds, su

But composers also draw novel sounds from voices and nonelectronic instruments. Singers may be asked to scream, laugh, groan, sneeze, or to sing phonetic(10) s

46、ounds rather than words. Wind and string players may lap or scrape their instruments. A brass or woodwind player may hum while playing, to produce two pitches at once; a pianist may reach inside the piano to pluck a string and then run a metal blade along it. In the music of the Western world, the g
