The Importance of Music in Our Lives
Art and music are basic human functions. Humankind and art cannot function without one another. We have the burning desire to create, whatever it may be and however tiny or grand. The interaction with sound is unavoidable, either to make it or take pleasure in hearing it. People have always found music significant in their lives whether for enjoyment in listening, in performing or in creating.
The most common way one becomes involved with music is through listening or attending a music event, particularly, this summer. Attending a concert is unique as it offers the excitement of hearing live musicans. Music is not only pleasing to the ears and mind, but also nurturing to the soul.
The role of the arts and music in our society fill a void that we all need in order to enrich ourselves and to, in turn, enrich our culture.
Music matters .. now, more than ever!
Pat Locke, Maestro Muse
