LIFE WITHOUT MUSIC WOULD BE A MISTAKE

That's right! But why?


Music is with us from the cradle to the grave (the end). From a mother's lullaby to the

funeral march.

It can be a cure for loneliness. Throughout our lives, it expresses the best joy and

sadness. Without words.


This applies to each of us and to all humanity.


Music is probably the oldest human language. Before we started speaking, we

communicated and expressed our feelings through music, i.e., singing (melody) and

dancing (rhythm).


It appears, therefore, that music was one of the main cores of the social formation of

humans. Consciously or not, music is with us when we learn, play, work, relax, buy,

celebrate, in the media, in public spaces, when we are alone or among people.


So maybe it is worth knowing something more about it, or maybe getting to know

and establishing relationships with this something, with which we are more or less

connected throughout our lives?


These relations can be active or passive. In both cases, closer or more distant:

acquaintance, sympathy, partnership, love, fascination...

It depends on you. 'Only you'. (Maybe except love: it has to be mutual!)


How to get to know yourself and what kind of relationship with music to choose?

I would love to talk about that with you if you would like.

I just have to confess that I may be a little biased because I still love music even though I

have been in relation to it for ages.

That's why I think „Life without music would be a mistake”.


Enough words.


Let us play: Spring is a time of beginnings. Maybe we should listen to delicate but intensive The Spring (Le Printemps) for violin and piano by Darius Milhaud?
