Music has been called the universal language. It is a language more powerful than words, for it is the language of emotion. Words communicate ideas; music communicates feelings. While words get stuck in the thinking part of our brains, music sails through to reach the innermost corners of our emotional being. And it is our emotions and feelings which really govern our lives and our actions. This is precisely why music is such a wonderful, dangerous, exhilarating, exciting power.
