Music is something which brings in peace in our body mind and soul. Music has different flavour, it comes in different sounds and genre. To understand music one should have good knowledge of music. If one understand music there is nothing like it as it helps in good health and mindset. There are lots of online music classes being held for which one needs only some chat tools installed in the computer. The fees are also very reasonable.

A reflection on music: in The Alan Parsons Project album, Tales of Mystery and Imagination (1976), there is a track titled The Fall of the House of Usher (as the short story by Edgar Allan Poe). It includes a passage based on some Poe's writings, narrated by Orson Welles:

Quote:

Shadows of shadows passing.
It is now 1831, and as always, I am absorbed with a delicate thought. It is how poetry has indefinite sensations, to which end, music is an essential.
Since the comprehension of sweet sound is our most indefinite conception, music when combined with a pleasurable idea is poetry.
Music without the idea is simply music. Without music or an intriguing idea, colour become pallor, man becomes carcass, home becomes catacomb, and the dead are but for a moment motionless.
