For my first post I've linked Ennio Morricone's masterpiece "Gabriel's Oboe".
If you haven't heard it before, or for a while, I want you to try something. Take a pad and pencil, and while you listen to this, write down the emotions you experience.
Now the question, does the music reach to something innate in us, or have we learned to associate particular emotions with this music? Is it the tune and rhythm lullaby or the association in the infants mind with sleep that works the magic? Do we write beautiful music because we natively recognize beauty, or do we write this kind of music because we've learned that it's beautiful?
