What kind of music do Pennsylvanians listen to?

Answer 1

The variety and styles of music enjoyed by people in Pennsylvania (and everywhere else) changes with the times. However, Classical Music endures and for some so will gangsta rap. A few will be Beetles or Elvis fans forever. A much smaller number will take pleasure in the works of Stephen Foster or the marches of John Philip Sousa.

Certain songs and artists will continue to send shivers down your spine long after their music is no longer in Vogue. Farewell Concerts, retrospectives and other such venues are still an important part of the entertainment world and DJ's will continue to sneak in an oldie but goodie onto the air-waves to warm the cockles of your heart from time to time. For example:

• Bing Crosby's 'White Christmas' or 'Where the Blue of the Night'.
• The Lennon Sisters' 'You Belong to Me'.
• Peggy Lee's 'Manana'.
• Glen Miller's 'When You Wish Upon A Star' and 'In the Mood'.
• Ella Fitzgerald's 'Oh Lady be Good' and 'Flying Home'.
• Don Ho's 'Blue Hawaii'.
• Johnny Ray's 'Cry'.
• Gene Autry's 'Blueberry Hill'.
• Spike Jones' 'Cocktails for Two'.
• The Ink Spots' 'If I Didn't Care'.
• Frank Sinatra's 'Come Fly With Me' and 'Only the Lonely'.
• Rosemary Clooney's ''Come On-a My House' and 'This Old House'.
• Vaughn Monroe's 'In the Still of the Night'.

Jazz followers, Blues, Bluegrass Festivals, Balladiers, Country and Western night, Folk singers and Chorale groups will probably have devotees in Pennsylvania, Paris and Pakistan forever. There will always be a place for the avant garde and innovation in music no matter how hard some try to discourage it.

In Pennsylvania (PA) everybody listens to music. Some of the most popular are country, hip hop, rap, orchestra, and hard rock through death metal. Every kind of music is listened to in PA which is why PA is one of the most music diverse state in the USA.
