Why Music IS So Important
40,000 years old flutes made from mammoth ivory are amongst the oldest man-made objects ever discovered. Compare this with reading and writing, the earliest forms of writing are no more than about 3500 years old. Music is a fundamental part of what makes us human. Every culture makes music and will ALWAYS continue to make music.
The unique world of music has an amazing variety of styles and genres, from such well-known as classical, pop, rock, jazz, to new genres ; idm, dubstep, synthpop and trancestep with a vast amount of new genres being invented as we speak. Music has the fantastic ability to entertain millions of people, change their mood and evoke specific memories. But not all of us realize why music affects us so much and can move its listeners in a profound way.
