Spring comes in the summer...

Inspired by my friend's Art 101 series, I'd like to start a Music 101 series. Basically, you can take this as an opportunity to ask me anything about music that you'd like to know more about. What is serialism? How did we figure out how to write down music? Where does rock music come from? What the hell is emo, anyway?

Classical, pop, jazz, world musics, whatever. I don't know it all, but we can find out some things together. So please, anything at all you've been wondering about, submit your questions and we'll see what we can learn!
