The power of music.

Music is an incredibly powerful form of expression. It combines both words and sound to deliver a message. Certain songs that one hears on the radio can trigger specific memories in one's mind. There is no doubt, there is a strong connection between music and our feelings.

The joy of music.

 In every society, in every period of history, men and women have made music. They have sung it and danced to it; they have used it in solemn rituals and in light hearted entertainments; they have listened to it in fields and forests, in temples, in bars, in music concert halls and opera houses; they have not only made it not only with their voices but by adapting natural objects and banging them, scraping through them, and blowing through them; they have used it to generate collective emotion-to excite, to calm, to inspire action, to draw tears. Music is not a fringe activity or a luxury one: it is a central and necessary part of human existence.



If music be the food of love, play on;
Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die.
That strain again! it had a dying fall:
O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound 1
That breathes upon a bank of violets,
Stealing and giving odour!

(1564 - 1616), "Twelfth Night", Act 1 scene 1
When griping grief the heart doth wound,
and doleful dumps the mind opresses,
then music, with her silver sound,
with speedy help doth lend redress.

(1564 - 1616)
