Instrumental music that has some literary or pictorial association is called program music. It is contrasted with music that is purely abstract, or music that is non-representational.

The title of the article is the question.

Most people think of music as either something to listen to for enjoyment, or something to play for enjoyment. However, there is another type of music that falls somewhere in between the two – instrumental music that has some literary or pictorial association.

This type of music is often used in movies, television shows, and other forms of media as a way to create a specific mood or atmosphere. It can be used to set the tone for a scene, or to convey a certain emotion. In some cases, it may even be used as a form of background noise, rather than as something that is actively listened to.

There are many different pieces of instrumental music that have some literary or pictorial association. Some of these are well-known and popular, while others are more obscure. However, all of them share one common trait – they are able to evoke a certain feeling or atmosphere when they are played.

The answer to the question is that it is called “program music.”

Program music is a type of instrumental music that has some sort of literary or pictorial association. It is usually intended to evoke a certain mood or tell a story, and is often inspired by poems, plays, or paintings. Many famous classical pieces are program music, including Liszt’s “Les Preludes” and Strauss’s “Thus Spake Zarathustra.”

The article will go on to explain what program music is and give examples.

Program music is a genre of instrumental music that has some sort of literary or pictorial association. The most common form of program music is the symphonic poem, which is a work for orchestra that is based on a story, poem, or painting. Other examples include the tone poem, which is similar to a symphonic poem but usually shorter; the concerto grosso, which is a piece for orchestra and several soloists that tells a story; and the program symphony, which is a work for orchestra that has an extramusical theme.

There are two different types of program music. The first is absolute, in which the composer writes a musical work that stands on its own, without any sort of extramusical association. An example of absolute program music would be Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s symphonic poem “Francesca da Rimini.”

The second type of program music is descriptive, in which the composer writes a piece of music that is meant to evoke a specific image, scene, or feeling. Examples of descriptive program music include Modest Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition” and Richard Strauss’ “Don Quixote.”
