Music is a powerful thing

Hello dear Friends!

In this article we're going  to consider what is music and in what does consist its powerful effects.

Everyone, I suppose, love to listen to music. There are lots of various music genres, styles, ways of producting it. Each of us has his/her preferences and favourite peaces of music. But it's really hard to immagine a person who lives without listening to the music and loving it (except of people with hearing loss). So what is the role of music in our everyday life and why is it so powerful and important?

 First of all, music is a language, a way of communication. The music writers, which can be each of us, use different tecniques to express themselves, to transmit their message, energy and emotions to the listeners. But what about listeners? They enjoy the music or hate it, they perceive it and try to understand, to interpret in thier own way, but they can't be totally indifferent what they are listening to. The music stimulate our immagination, inspire us to act or to create something, it doesn't need words to tell a story or to speak to the listeners.

Music can be also an instrument of impovement or development of our play skills (Yuja Wang), a way of relaxing and making kids calmer (Mozart), a reason to widen the scop of our knowledge about the greatest musicians and their output (Lang Lang) or simly to admire the fantasy and talent of famous singers and musicians (Muse - but here we do have the lyrics ;) ).

In one hand music is perceived by us like a consequence of sounds, but it can be also painted or sculptured:

Regina Valluzzi, "Music of the spheres"

Nathalie Mielbach, "Weather music sculpture"

We don't need to be great art experts to know and to realize that music is not only about listening and creating, it's about something more, like discovering the world, everything that is material and abstract, learning about ourselves, our minds, feelings and practicing our sensitivity to what is unique and eternal.
