MUSIC IS IMPORTANT TO US by Dhanishthaa



MUSIC IS IMPORTANT TO US

My friends and I planned to go out for lunch. So, we went to a restaurant and one of the reasons we enjoyed there was the soothing background music. That day, in the evening we carried our phones and headphones and went for a walk. We had a good walk as we were listening to our favourite music, while walking.
Music is one of the basic fine arts
        Music is one of the fine arts, like other forms of art. It requires imagination skills and technical skills. As dance is an artistic expression of movement, painting is artistic expression of colours, music is of sounds.
Music – an important form of education
         Music is an important form of education. According to Plato, a Greek philosopher, music is an important aspect to education. In his plan of education, he has paid attention to three disciplines and one of them are ’music for the realization of the soul’. Thus, music connects us with the real self, i.e. soul. While listening to relaxing music, we tend to begin the journey inward.
Music has magic powers
Music has magical power. This is testified by the fact that Orpheus, a legendary Greek musician could make stones dance to his music. The stories of Tansen and Baiju Bawra are not unknown to us. They could light lamps, melt stones, blossom flowers in autumn, cause rain just by the accurate use of the ‘accurate tune’. Music has the power of healing and the power of soothing.
“Music… Will help dissolve perplexities and purify your character and sensibility, and in time of care and sorrow, will keep a fountain of joy alive in you.”
