There is an old expression "Music Soothes The Savage Beast". What that expression really means is that music has the unique ability to alter one's mood , to calm the heart, stir the emotions, lift the spirit, change the mind and move one to action! Very little can compare with the impact that music has on mankind as a whole.
Music started millenniums ago even before men had any way of recording history. They had music before they knew how to read or write. One can consider that the voice was the first musical instrament, along with the clapping of hands and the stomping of feet. And, one might say that music and the human body itself go "hand in hand", for the human body itself is a rhythmic thing. The pulse of the heartbeat and chanting or beat of a drum in song both have a rhythm. It is something that people the world over can understand and it conveys a message almost like language itself.
All music has two things in common....sound and movement, as does nature. There is the sound and movement of the wind, of brooks and oceans, of falling rain as well as the sounds of many living things. The birds sing, the rooster crows and the dog barks, all of which have sound and movement in rhythm that are in order. And that my friends is the way it is with music!!
