This volume offers a full chapter discussion of digital instruments in the twenty-first century with an emphasis on how synthesizers, samplers, drum machines, and computer effects such as auto-tune have taken on a greater role in chart-topping pop music. Readers will learn about the rising popularity of the tuba in banda music in Mexico and Southern California in what is being called the "tuba revolution." Additional information about country instruments such as the fiddle and standup bass are explained. Each chapter focuses on the history of a different family of instruments; percussion, woodwinds, brass, strings, keyboards, and digital instruments.
