    "Elevator music" is the general, mildly pejorative term for music that is written or

    performed with the intention of having the music set the atmosphere or the mood

    of a place, and be otherwise ignored and not call attention to itself.

    It's 'background music', 'dinner music' etc. It's music in the gaseous state.

    Real music has a beginning, a structure, a middle, a development, a melody,

    some variations, a resolution, and an end. 'Elevator music' really doesn't need

    any of these things. It's built and performed in such a way that its effects on a

    listener completely DON'T depend on when he comes in, how long he stays,

    whether he tunes in or tunes out, and when he leaves.
