Music.
	John Knowles Paine was the first American composer to have a work performed in Europe, the first American to write a symphony, and the first professor of music in the United States. Andrés Segovia sought to have the guitar played on every major stage just as the piano and violin were, and to have music written specifically for the instrument; he succeeded.     Lorenzo Dow Fuller, Jr. was the first Black to host a national television show, and the first Black man to star opposite a white woman on a national television show. The Commodores were founded by Lionel Richie, William King, Thomas McClary, Milan Williams, Ronald LaPread and Walter Orange at Tuskegee Institute in 1968. They went on to become the largest selling act for Motown throughout the 1970s and 1980s.     (Harvey) Phillip Spector began his music career as part of a group known as The Teddy Bears. He is best known, however, for his "Wall of Sound," wherein the instrumentals were recorded first and then played back while the vocal tracks were being laid. The Violin is a stringed instrument that is played with a bow. It has four strings, which are tuned in fifths. The first violins date from the 1500's.
