200 Music Appreciation
Choosing an artist to create a 200-CD compilation would be a very difficult choice given there are hundreds of composers over the centuries to choose from; I enjoy the music of many composers from several eras. The musicians who wrote songs in the Baroque Era sound very different than musicians of the Renascence or modern day eras. In addition, there are regional styles of music and genres which have to be taken into consideration, too. For instance, K pop, Greek pop, and American pop are types of music I enjoy and are quite different from one another. It seems music styles in the late 20th century and early 21st century change every 5-10 years. I like music from the 1970s; I also like music from the 1980s. These two decades sound very different
to me. In answering the question asked though, I think I would choose Phillip Sousa to create a 200-CD compilation of his music. He invented the Sousaphone which greatly influenced the sound of marching bands; he also wrote many great marches with nice dynamics like Stars and Stripes Forever and Manhattan Beach. He was also the equivalent of the marine band leader in the Victorian Era.
