Definition
Organizations that offer musical performances which feature a contemporary form of music that emerged in the 1980's which is characterized by harmony and consonance; lack of melody, rhythm or harsh shrill sounds; and the electro-acoustic enhancement of instrumental tones. New age music is primarily instrumental or may be accompanied by "positive consciousness" lyrics, and is often used in conjunction with meditation. Also included are programs that arrange for new age music festivals and new age music competitions that are staged as public performances.
