Question

what is dissonance?
(1 point)
○ pleasing sounds
○ clashing sounds

Explanation:

Dissonance in music (and related contexts) refers to sounds that clash or are harsh/unpleasant together, as opposed to consonance (pleasing sounds). The other options are incorrect: it's not a 20th - century or Romantic - exclusive technique, and "pleasing sounds" is consonance.

Answer:

B. clashing sounds
