Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,7, University of Bonn (Institut für Anglistik, Amerikanistik und Keltologie), language: English, abstract: People all over the world have been identifying with music for years. Music has a social quality that is across-the-board. But now only one nation is on focus. Every British decade had its own sound. Looking at the 1960s, The Beatles and The Rolling Stones were dominating the music scene. Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath invented Heavy Metal in the 1970s and also Glam Rock with representatives like Queen and David Bowie started during the 1970s. The 80s as the climax of the Punk Rock movement headed by the Sex Pistols and the upcoming Indie-Rock scene represented by The Cure. Music, now and then, reflects its time, its history and all the changes that passes by. The question of this term paper is, Does one identity of the British excist? Or are there maybe several identities? Or none? And is music the key to find any answers?
