Dear Members:
It just occurred to me what a wonderful expression of the variety of experiences that music presents to humans. Give someone R and B and they gag... others get there butts up off the chair and start dancing (I am the latter). Share some classical ensemble and I'm off to sleep while others are swooning. Play some country music and you will find eyes rolling like Arizona tumble weeds... and at the same time tears will flow from mine. Corny, of course, but I guess I'm just a sentimental old fool.
BUT... play Balinese Gamelan music and I am floating in outer space, while others are trying figure the timing of it... trust me, it's impossible. I lived there for six months decades ago and I never forget the wonder of that experience... guess that's why the music moves me.
What thinketh you?
Love ya, Jed.
