Popular music dominates airwaves, screens, and stages nationwide, playing nonstop on radio, TV, theaters, clubs, and performance spaces. This term broadly covers various subgenres including rock, country, soul, blues, pop, contemporary musical theater, electronic, dance, and more. The program features five specialized tracks: Electric Bass Guitar, Drums, Electric Guitar, Keyboards, or Vocal Performance.
