Easy Listening

Easy Listening is a broad, popular music genre that emerged in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is characterized by an emphasis on melody and lush orchestral arrangements, and is often associated with being light, relaxed, and enjoyable. It draws influences from a variety of sources, including jazz, classical music, pop, and lounge music. It was popularized in the 1950s and 1960s as a genre of popular music designed to be appealing to listeners of all ages. Easy Listening music was often played in commercial settings such as elevators, supermarkets, and other public spaces. As a result, it is often seen as providing a pleasant background for such settings. It has since gained a resurgence in popularity, particularly in recent years as a source of relaxing and nostalgic music.
