What is the best way to taxonomize music genres?
assistant
The best way to taxonomize music genres is to organize them according to their shared characteristics. This could include categorizing them according to their instrumentation, vocal style, tempo, rhythm, and lyrical content. Additionally, genres can also be divided into more traditional or commercial categories, or into subgenres based on specific stylistic elements. It is important to remember that music genres are highly subjective and therefore any taxonomy of them should accept that there is some degree of overlap between categories.
