Today is . . .
. . . World Music Day!
Music is an extremely powerful force. It can shape our emotions, give us release. We can relax with it, or go absolutely insane dancing around and singing off-key. A few bars, played on a violin, can ramp up the emotion of a scene in a film; be it sad or romantic.
My main musical tastes are for goth/metal/rock/punk. However, I was brought up listening to my parents music collection. They were teens in the 60s so I have a passion for the music of that period (as well as other things :-D ). Also from my Dad I gained a love of classical, opera, and musicals. My sister inspired an enjoyment of Ska and Two-Tone.
Whether you play, or listen, today is for indulging in your favourite music. I am currently listening to a classical concert by the Vienna Philharmonic.
