Art Rock

Art Rock is a musical genre that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s as a combination of various genres including progressive rock, psychedelic rock, and classical music. The genre combines elements of rock music, such as electric guitar and drums, with classical instruments such as strings, keyboards, and horns, as well as a variety of electronic effects. Art Rock is often characterized by its eclectic sound, complex arrangements, and innovative use of technology. Artists such as Pink Floyd, Yes, and King Crimson are considered pioneers of the genre. Art Rock is often seen as an offshoot of progressive rock, which was popular in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
