Answer:
Program music - music that has an extra-musical idea to go along with it. It might be a story, an idea, a picture, or a text. Absolute music - music that has NO extra-musical idea to go along with it. It is music for its own sake, with the composer giving you NO hint as to what it might be depicting.
Answer:
Program music- instrumental music that carries some extramusical meaning, some “program” of literary idea, legend, scenic description, or personal drama. It is contrasted with so-called absolute, or abstract, music, in which artistic interest is supposedly confined to abstract constructions in sound.
Absolute music- (sometimes abstract music) is music that is not explicitly "about" anything; in contrast to program music, it is non-representational.
