In Switzerland, many of the young people listen to the same types of music as we do in the US. The most popular artist is Celine Dion for her single "Titanic". Some popular bands are of the same genre of the popular bands here in the US, though they are native to Switzerland. You can read about these bands in the links down below. Another kind of music that people listen to is called "Laendlermusik". In the rural parts of Switzerland, such as the mountainous regions and the Alps, yodeling is also a popular kind of music.
