What Are Music Concepts?

They're like different flavors of music, adding distinction and particularity to the song or dance. Volume could be a swirl of chocolate, making the beat more or less intense depending on how much you use. Use a dab of lemon to change the pitch: how high or low do you want to go? Then sprinkle the rhythm with chopped nuts if you want something a little bouncy, or leave the nuts off if you prefer your music smooth. So many choices. So many dimensions. So many possible combinations.

Choose a musical cupcake that is right for the occasion. The bounce-along beat of Belfast Hornpipe is perfect for a car ride, while the softer lilt of Home Sweet Home makes a lovely bedtime song. The good news is that you have an endless variety to choose from, all are delicious, and none is fattening.
