Acoustic music
Acoustic music refers to music that solely or primarily uses instruments which produce sound through entirely
acoustic
means, as opposed to
electronic
means. Given that
electronic instruments
are a very recent invention in the
history of music
, almost all musical instruments are acoustic and subsequently almost all music. The term "acoustic music" is a
retronym
, coined after the advent of electric instruments, such as the
electric guitar
,
Hammond organ
and the
synthesiser
.
