It was the chirping of the
birds, very early in the morning, brought such sweet melody to the ears. Birds
are very early risers. Before dawn their hustle-bustle and flights take off and
in no time their melody reaches the ears. Nature has such a great part to play
in our lives. And we, what are we doing, just cutting down the trees where the
birds can build their nests and sing to us from and make us rise early.
Music can be good and bad. It’s
the ears that can make the distinction. Sweet melodious music is so soothing to
the ears. Vocal or instrumental, hardly makes a difference, as long as music is
being enjoyed.

Music gives a sense of
peace and calm to the mind and soul. In loneliness music can be a friend.
Loud music can irritate the
nerves. You need not be an expert to love music. The ears can hear, the mind
can absorb, and the body can relax…that’s the effect of music.

Classical music – vocal and
instrumental – is something very special and champions in these don’t make in a
day. It takes years of riyaz/practice to expertise in this art form. Most liked
is light music, as it suits the tuning of the person’s liking. No harm, for
music lives in the minds and heart of the people.
The sound of music creates
magic and is appreciated again and again.
