Voice, Genre, Style, Diction, Tone: A Musical Guide to Writing Style

Author
Tyson, Lee
Abstract
This handout explains and clarifies the distinctions among aspects of writing style (voice,
genre, style, diction, and tone) through parallel concepts in music. While particularly useful in a
writing course on musical topics, this handout offers an accessible introduction to writing style
concepts for students who are attuned to music in their daily lives, as listeners or performers. An
accompanying writing style analysis peer review activity is included.
