Second Article Review About Music

http://themusictherapyjournal.com/

 I like this article very much because I really like music. Music is important and a love in my life. If I could I would listen to music everywhere. I like to listen to different music and try and appreciate it for what it is, even the songs with screaming instead of singing or relaxing exercise kind of music my mom likes. I have a cousin who likes all the screaming bands along with Beyonce and Mariah Carey, he told me ‘I like good music, so any music good for its genre, I love.’ I found out a few days later that he plays classical guitar. He never tells anyone, I told him that was so cool and I meant it. I’ve never heard of classical guitar, but obviously because people who play are embarrassed and hide it which is sad really that people feel they need to like and play what everybody else does.For me music is one of my life and soul.

                A lot of people my age use music to create their identity. Music can really affect your mood. If I’m ever upset or angry about something I will always put my earphones in nice and loud to drain everything out. I take out my emotion by putting the best loudest song on and instead of thinking about why I’m upset I hear the words of the song and say them in my head. Music helps me calm down, relax and realise everything is fine. If my mom wants to set a relaxing mood to read a book or while driving one of the things she will always do is pick a suitable song. In a movie the music editor is very important to create suspense atmosphere or create the setting in to give good impact at movie. Other than that,if have any programme in one ceremony,they need music as entertainment for guests. It can make the event more interesting.Music will express your feelings based what genre of music that you hear.

                Learning music takes extreme self-discipline and creativity.   It has been shown to raise self-esteem and make society more confident in their abilities.   It is an easy outlet to release frustrations to get rid of the burden on your shoulders.   It uplifts and motivates the spirit and gives people a more positive outlook on life and situations.
