Music Music An audiophile — literally, one who loves to hear — is a person dedicated to high-fidelity sound reproduction and achieving high-quality results in the recording and playback of music. Audiophile values may be applied at all stages of the chain — the initial audio recording, the production process, and the playback, which is usually in a home setting. High-end is commonly applied to audiophile vendors, products, and practices. There is great skepticism inside and outside the audiophile community as to whether these practices and products have the claimed effects on the listening experience, and there are often accusations of self-delusion. The skeptics are referred to as objectivists. Those who generally subscribe to audiophile values are referred to as subjectivists. People on both sides of the debate concede that since many audiophiles are laymen, they are vulnerable to exploitation by fanciful claims made by unethical vendors. ...more on Wikipedia about "Audiophile"

A keynote in literature, music or public speaking is the principal underlying theme of a larger idea — a literary story, an individual musical piece or event. At political or industrial conventions and expositions and at academic conferences, the keynote address or keynote speech is delivered to set the underlying tone and summarize the core message or most important revelation of the event. Some of the more famous keynote speeches in the United States are those at the party conventions during Democratic and Republican presidential campaigns. Keynote speakers at these events have often gained nationwide fame (or notoriety), and have occasionally influenced the course of the election; for example, Pat Buchanan at the 1992 Republican National Convention and Barack Obama at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. Similar speeches are given at political conventions and party meetings throughout the world. ...more on Wikipedia about "Keynote"

Music may be used to build the energy of the fans, and music may also be introduced in ways that are less directly connected with the action in a sporting event. ...more on Wikipedia about "Music at sporting events"
