| The music is, according to the traditional definition of the term, art sensible and logically organizes a coherent mix sounds and silences using fundamental principles melody The harmony and rate Through the intervention of complex psycho-psychic processes. The concept of music has evolved from its origins in ancient Greece, which met without regard to poetry, music and dance as an art unit. For several decades it has become more complex the definition of what is and is not the music, as composers featured in the framework of various artistic experiences border, have carried out works, but could be considered music, expanding the limits the definition of art.
The music, like any art form, is a cultural product. The purpose of this art is to provoke experience aesthetics in the listener, and express feelings, circumstances, thoughts or ideas. Music is a stimulus that affects the individual's perceptual field, so the flow of sound can fulfill various functions (entertainment, communication, environment, etc.).
The definitions start from within cultures, and so the sense of musical expression is affected by psychological issues, social, cultural and historical. Thus, multiple and diverse definitions arise that may be valid at the time to express what is meant by music. None, however, can be regarded as perfect or absolute.
A fairly broad definition determines music organized sound (According to a perceptible development, consistent and significant). This definition assumes that, in that to which consensual unions can be called "music" - may perceive certain patterns of "flow noise" depending on how the properties of sound are learned and processed by humans (there are even those who consider also animals).
Today it is common to work with a concept of music based on three essential attributes: it uses sounds, which is a product human (And in this sense, artificial), which function predominates aesthetics. If we take into account only the first two elements of the definition, nothing would differentiate the music of language. As for the "aesthetic" is a debatable point: thus, for example, a jingle advertising music no longer fulfills a function not aesthetics (trying to sell a commodity). On the other hand, speak of a function "aesthetic" presupposes an idea of??The music (and art in general) that works independently, outside the functioning of society, as we see in art theory of the philosopher Immanuel Kant. |
