Evolution of Music

Music: the tones or sounds employed, occurring in single line (melody) or multiple lines (harmony), and sounded or to be sounded by one or more voices or instruments, or both. What an inadequate definition. Music is much more than just a bunch of sounds. It’s a medium for expression, like poetry or painting or drawing or dancing. It’s a collection of ideas mashed into one message that means something different to everyone. Everyone knows what it’s like to find that one perfect song to match their mood or help them grieve through something difficult—like a death of a friend or family-member or the end of a relationship. Which is why it’s so sad that music has started evolving into telling stories about beating and raping women or killing people… How can something so pure in concept turn into something so devoid of any morality?
