Chapter 4 Pronunciation Assistant

Our World, Our Music presents music from many of our world's cultures.  Pronunciation of some of the music's titles or of composers' or performers' names may be unfamiliar.  The Pronunciation Assistant provides an opportunity to hear some of the terms and names from Chapter 4 spoken aloud.  Since some terms may have more than one correct pronunciation, your instructor's pronunciation may differ from that of The Pronunciation Assistant.
