WHAT MAKES MUSIC SO SPECIAL

Music, one of the most ancient arts of huma­ni­ty. What makes music so spe­cial for us? Today I’m going to explore this thought. As incre­dible it may be, accor­ding to Wiki­pe­dia[i], the Divje Babe flute[ii], a flute sha­ped ins­tru­ment car­ved from a cave bear femur, is thought to be at least 40,000 years old. If it was true, it would be pos­si­bly the world’s oldest known musi­cal ins­tru­ment. Impres­sive right? In my last Dai­ly thought, I tal­ked to you about our tri­bal beha­vior. Music plays an impor­tant role in group mani­fes­ta­tion. For many years now, music had an impor­tant cultu­ral aspect that trig­gers our dee­pest belon­ging need[iii]. Ano­ther inter­es­ting aspect is the asso­cia­tion of music and dance. These two forms of expres­sion have always been good friends, but we’ll think about that ano­ther day. In addi­tion, music has also its very per­so­nal effect. Lis­te­ning to music helps us recall emo­tions rela­ted to moments we can asso­ciate with a song or a melo­dy. Our more pre­cious gift, our ima­gi­na­tion, can even create emo­tion from fan­ta­sies we build in reac­tion to our life.
