Enjoyment of Music

I used to think of music as a complement to singing, and singing as a complement to music. Music is an artistic way to reflect your emotions. Music is an art that can almost touch your emotions and speeds up your heart beats and shed tears, or it can slow your heart beat and make you smile and happy. Poetry and singing are other arts that can join music but they are not part of music. I think I knew nothing about music, but now I think I do.

I learned how ancient composers have a very strong effect on our lives today. They have a great effect in our life today, just like how Thomas Edison when he invented the Electricity. Something I learned is that high quality music is like a high quality speech, you have to listen and pay attention. This is something I felt when our professor start playing piano at the beginning of every class. I feel like I pay the same attention when he plays piano and reads the poetry like if he communicates with us in both.

I have learned about a great composer in our enjoyment of music class. I think I have learned about the most wonderful miracle that happened in our history.

He is one of the most famous and influential composer of human history. Beethoven first teacher was his father. Around 1796 Beethoven started to lose his hearing. Around 1798 he started to be a musician icon. You may have noticed that his real musician career...
