MUSIC Country music is extremely popular in the United States. It has united two folk trends in itself – traditional folk music of the people of the Appalachian Mountains area and traditional cowboy songs from the West. Historically it is connected with the English ballads. Originally this music was considered to be low class. These songs tell life stories in the simple language, they are about eternal human feelings – dramatic love, happiness, good and bad old times. A singer usually plays the guitar. In 1925 American radio programme started broadcasting country music from Nashville, Tennessee, and the boom began. Nowadays lots of people adore this music, and special festivals are organized – the most famous held in Nashville, that attract thousands of fans from all over the world. Afrobeat originated in Nigeria in 1960s and obviously was influenced by American jazz. Like in jazz Afrobeat music is heavily dependent on improvisation, but actually you can hear a variety of chords and sounds of different musical forms in it - funk, classical music and, of course, traditional African beats. This mixture is very powerful emotionally and is popular with a lot of people. Fela Kuti was at the beginning of this music trend. He is often called African’s Bob Dilan as his music contained political and social message.

Nowadays Afrobeat fiery energy and excitement appeal to people’s mind and heart and this genre has a lot of fans. Ответьте на вопросы письменно. 1. What is the text about? 2.
