On Composer Study: Homeschooling by Subject
About this episode
This episode explores the significance of music throughout history and its emotional impact.
Music has been an integral part of history since the beginning. From the psalms of David to your favorite Amazon playlists or Spotify stations today, every culture in every time period has used music for expression, pleasure, and even a high form of worship. Music clearly carries meaning. Music tells us how to feel. While the words are often important, it is the notes being played that dictate what those words mean. And when you listen to music without words, there is no loss; the combination of notes can evoke joy or sadness, excitement or calm. Think of music in the background of a movie; we know suspense, fear, sentiment, or happiness based on the notes being played. Read more and find links on my Substack
