A beautiful combination of sounds, which touches the heart, is called music. It highlights human feelings, expresses thoughts, and spreads like a fragrance in the air. From childhood to old age, it is present in every stage.
Songs accompany every moment of life, every occasion, every situation. It tells the listener things in silence. This is the reason why it exists in some form or the other in every civilization.
Beginning
In ancient times, people used to enjoy the sounds of nature. Inspired by the rustle of the wind, the flow of water, the chirping of birds, they were composed. Instruments like flute, rabab, drum and tambourine came into being with time.
The music of each region has its uniqueness. Sometimes instruments, sometimes voice, sometimes speech, and sometimes rhythm are seen as more important. This art presented itself in a new way in every generation.
Feelings and Songs
The heart often cannot be expressed in words, but songs say what cannot be said with words. Be it sadness or happiness, separation or meeting, it becomes a mirror of emotions on every occasion.
A sad song makes the eyes moist, while happy songs bring a smile to the faces. Every person's heart is connected to music, only the style is different.
Music acts like a soft light in problems like stress, worry, and anxiety. Experts believe that certain melodies reduce mental confusion.
When a person listens to a calm song quietly, he feels an inner peace. This is why songs are also included in many treatments.
