What is program music?

Question

How can I write 3 short summary of the music?

Answer 1

Program music is music intended to evoke extra-musical ideas, images in the mind of the listener by musically representing a scene, image or mood [1]. By contrast, absolute music stands for itself and is intended to be appreciated without any particular reference to the outside world. The term is almost exclusively applied to works in the European classical music tradition, particularly those from the Romantic music period of the 19th century, during which the concept was popular, but pieces which fit the description have long been a part of music. The term is usually reserved for purely instrumental works (pieces without singers and lyrics), and not used, for example for Opera or Lieder.

Answer 2

The above answers are basically correct. The name "program music" comes from the fact that a written program accompanies the music, so the audience can tell what is being described or story being told. In addition to Beethoven's 6th, an early example is Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique.
