What would the world be without music?

Everybody claims to love music, which can give expression to what we keep inside ourselves like nothing else in the world.

Music is one of the greatest expressions of human mind and soul, the perfect match of rationality and feelings, formal precision and free expression. Music mixes and combines some of the peculiarities of human soul, and probably this is why nobody can do without it. Some people content themselves with listening to it in their own room or in a concert hall, while somebody else prefer to play by themselves, refining their technique attending a music course. In any case, and no matter how we approach music, we do that because it can accompany different moments of our life, soothing us when we are sad, making us dance and jump with our friends when we are happy, and letting us expressing our rage shouting or attacking guitar strings. Both if we play and if we listen to it, music can penetrate inside ourselves, and take out even our most secret parts, the parts that we try to hide to others, and sometimes to ourselves, too. A world without music would be the same as a world without books and images: an incomplete world, missing what can express the human soul in the best way.

Music has always been part of everybody’s life, and although there used to be – and actually there is still – a division between cultured and popular music, commercial music and art, everybody needs to have some contacts with it. You begin when you are a baby, and your mother sings to you some lullabies to put you to sleep, as to say “I’m not leaving you alone, there is music in your ears and in your heart”, and you continue throughout your life, with the first guitar course, with the purchase of your first record, with your first, longed for concert. As in the beginning of our life music shows to be able to alleviate our suffering, giving us serenity and calm, in the same way throughout our life we can notice that most of the times nothing like our favorite songs can understand and wrap us, as if they had the power of getting out of the music player to come and hug us.

The power of music emanates even if you just listen to it, but learning to play an instrument, or to sing, means finding even more personal means of expression. If the world of music industry seems to be invaded by clone bands, which make songs that are all the same, just to meet the demand of the market and to make money, it is also true that most of the people who decide to attend a music course approach the world of music in a disinterested way, and think above all about the thrill of holding an instrument in their own hands, and to gain the ability of expressing themselves by means of music. Unfortunately musicians that are only interested in earning do exist, but this must not invalidate the world of music, which is first of all expression of our own internal world.
