Mozart And Me

How much music do you consume? But do you know what it is? An average person listens to music more than 25 hrs each week, which amounts to 13 years of your life, spent on listening to music! Music is in the fabric of our modern lives, and we have a soundtrack for nearly every activity. But, ironically, most people have no idea how music works or even the basics of how to listen and appreciate music. This episode explores the basic nature of music. If we boil music down to its essence, what is it? Is it a universal language, as some have claimed? What does that mean? What is it communicating? Defining music is not easy. The next three episodes will help you understand music, possibly like you have never seen before.
