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.

"A light exists in Spring
Not present in the year
at any other period
When March is scarcely here."
