The power of music

Music is an art, the soul of life, it is spiritual and transcends the barrier of language, time and space.

It expresses emotions, such as rage, heartbreak, melancholy or depression.

 Rhythm and melody, the core elements of music, can be found in nature.

The melodious voice and chirps from the birds like the nightingale can calm your nerves and breed creativity.

Our breathing also has a rhythm, defining the notion that music permeates nature and nature permeates music.

The late Pan Conroy, an American author stated, "Without music, life is a journey through a desert".

Music is an integral part of everyday life.

It engages our senses, comforts, heals, teaches, provides refuge and brings us closer to each other.

The purest form of worship to God, and to connect our souls with him is not just through prayer, but music.

Our memories are often tied to certain genres like Gospel, High life or Reggae associated with the paths of our emotional lives.
