Behind Euphonious Realms

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything.”

– Plato

 

 

          Music is a five-letter word with a very deep meaning. According to my research, it is an art of arranging sounds in time through the elements of melody, harmony, rhythm and timbre which are true but have you ever wondered how powerful music is? Have you compared our life to music? It may be simple wherever we heard that word but let me tell you something, music is not what you think it is. Let me make you believe that music is a very influential thing in this realm. 

Diverse Aspects of Music in our Universe

Emotions

             Emotions, wherever we feel sad, happy, mad, surprised or anything that we may feel is similar to music. Some composers or musician always based their music on their emotions or own experience to write or make music that we would hear anytime. As we heard the beautiful harmony of piano and guitar, we always feel it deep within. 

           We would know how every strum of that guitar strike our heart, every touch of that finger on a white tab of a piano changed our emotions a composer musician’s mood. We would feel confident, nervous, joyful or sorrowful by just hearing every euphonious music around us and that’s the special thing about music, it spread its passion in us.

Universe

            The universe, it's a place where all living and non-living things exist. It was filled with stars, comets and other galaxies that were so mesmerising to look at. Just like Universe, music is filled with a heartful and luminous melody that completes our spirit. Whenever we read a book we always imagine other composers in that situation or in another universe which is identical to hearing music. With every note that a musician hit, our minds are taking us to another universe. 

         Whenever we heard a love song we would imagine ourselves in another dimension and being in love. Music takes us into the universes that the composers wrote beneath their hearts.  As we appreciate every being in this cosmos, it's always better whenever music reaches our ears and that's how extraordinary music is, it makes the universe better and imaginable to think of.

Controlled

            Controlled, music is composed by its musician. Melodies that we are hearing every day are created by the artists but why would we hear a different version of the original songs? It's because many people are controlling or changing it in a rendition that they think would be better for the song or music just like how other people are controlling you or us. 

          Every judgement and insult that they tell, reflects in ourselves and that's the start of us changing. Just like how the composer makes the music, God creates us how he wants us to be but people just can’t accept our original rendition. Music is powerful in a way that even though many people remake or control them, it still makes us feel better.

Freedom

          Freedom, in this world full of judgemental people it is very lucky if you still get your freedom. Accept it or not, we are imprisoned in this toxic society and our insecurities. It's hard to get your freedom without any doubts or hesitations just as musicians release their music. Composers and instrumentalists have a thousand hesitations before publishing a perfect symphony that we listen to at any time. 

       Realise that melody or songs give them liberty that they can't express themselves daily. As a hobby of songwriting with no freedom, music gives me the freedom that I didn't experience always. Music frees us in a cruel world, in just a melody of a peaceful violin our mind would be separate from problems even in just a minute. That's how outstanding music is, it gives us the serenity and liberation that we deserve.

Beauty 

"Music is the purest form of art, and therefore the most direct expression of beauty,"

        Beauty, Beauty is a perfect sight to glimpse, an epitome of euphoric experience that gives us butterflies whenever someone recognizes it. Something so hard to attain as we impress others that makes them love but let me tell you something “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. Just like music, before we appreciate the musician’s melody they already loved their music.

        Music makes us feel special and wonderful in our way. The harmonious melody brings about the best in everything and makes our everyday lives better. Without music, everything felt so dull and so hard to live for. And that’s the rare thing about music, it is beautiful from every angle. 

        As I am writing this and analysing how powerful music is, it makes me amazed as a music lover. Honestly, I didn’t think I can see music as I am before. Music can make us experience any emotions by listening to it and travelling us into another galaxy. It may be controlling our emotions by hearing them like how we control them, but it still gives us liberation to express our feelings that we can’t tell daily. Music let us feel beautiful like how lovely they are. 

"Music cleanses the understanding; inspires it, and lifts it into a realm which it would not reach if it were left to itself."

-Henry Ward Beecher
