Music, artful arrangement of sounds (16) time. this definition is obviously very

broad, but a narrower one would exclude (17) much. Music is part of virtually every
culture on (18) , but it varies widely among cultures in style and structure. Definitions of
music can (19) dramatically over a short time, as they have across the world during the
20th (20) .
Can music exist without (21) ? Some philosophers argue that music should be
defined as a kind of "mental (22) " and that the physical aspects of sound are simply by-

33seconds of silence music? Is the activity of reading a (27) of hundreds of
