What is Music?

"Musick is a tonick to the saddened soul." - Robert Burton (1577 - 1640), "Anatomy of Melancholy"

"Music covers the whole gamut of emotions: it can make us feel happy or sad, nostalgic or energetic, and some music is capable of overtaking the mind until it is oblivious to all else. It works on the subconscious, creating or enhancing mood and unlocking deep memories. Music is intimately bound up with important events in all our lives. There is hardly a ceremony, whether personal or national, that is not accompanied by music. It may be as simple as the nightly ritual of a mother singing her baby to sleep or as formal as the playing of a national anthem. It may be a spontaneous outpouring of mass emotion, such as the spectators singing before a football game or it may be a highly wrought and carefully reheasred performance of massed bands and choirs a a great state wedding or funeral."

An easier question would be, "What is not music?"

There was no such thing as popular or classical music, there was just good and bad music.

To some, the sounds made by a heavy metal rock band constitute music, while to others, as well as me, they are just highly amplified noise.

There are few people who do not react to music to some degree. The power of music is diverse and people respond in different ways. To some it is mainly an instinctive, exciting sound to which they dance or move their bodies. Other people listen for its message, or take an intellectual approach to its form and construction, appreciating its formal patterns or originality. Above all, however, there can be hardly anyone who is not moved by some kind of music.

So, which one do you belong to?
