Music is everywhere, and it is expanding. Isn’t that fantastic? More genres, more choice, more fantastic soundtracks to epic moments in our lives (Don’t lie; I know we’ve all had that moment where a song has perfectly suited to what we have done!) It would be a sad state of affairs if music ever died out, and I hope that would never happen.
As a child, I experienced many types of music, however one of the most fantastic ways that I have ever seen music produced in a relatable way for children was through the TV programme ‘Oscar’s Orchestra’ (See Link below for the youtube trailer!) The programme tells us of a tyrannical leader who tries to destroy music, and through the lovable character of Oscar the Piano, a resistance is led. It featured many pieces of music that I still listen to and love, yet it also tells us of the importance of music in our lives. Music fits the beat that of our lives. We listen to music for many reasons, yet it is amusing that there is always a track, CD or playlist that fits the mood that we are in. Whilst I study, I find that listening to classical music helps me concentrate. The different tempos, melodies and harmonies provide a euphoria that prevents boredom. Whether it’s Jazz, Classical, Indie, Rock, Alternative, Rap, House, Pop (The list goes on!) music provides us with enjoyment. Everyone can connect with music and it is vital that the music out there is appreciated... unless it is Rebecca Black’s ‘Friday’.
I leave you with this rather amusing piano joke!
A Pianist leaves his wife a note:
‘Gone Chopin, (have Liszt), Bach in a Minuet.’
