From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Music is an art form whose medium is sound. Common elements of music are pitch (which governs melody and harmony), rhythm (and its associated concepts tempo, meter, and articulation), dynamics, and the sonic qualities of timbre and texture. The word derives from Greek μουσική (mousike), "(art) of the Muses". The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of music vary according to culture and social context. Music ranges from strictly organized compositions (and their recreation in performance), through improvisational music to aleatoric forms. Music can be divided into genres and subgenres, although the dividing lines and relationships between music genres are often subtle, sometimes open to individual interpretation, and occasionally controversial. Within "the arts", music may be classified as a performing art, a fine art, and auditory art. To many people in many cultures music is an important part of their way of life. Greek philosophers and ancient Indian philosophers defined music as tones ordered horizontally as melodies and vertically as harmonies. Common sayings such as "the harmony of the spheres" and "it is music to my ears" point to the notion that music is often ordered and pleasant to listen to. However, 20th-century composer John Cage thought that any sound can be music, saying, for example, "There is no noise, only sound." According to musicologist Jean-Jacques Nattiez, "the border between music and noise is always culturally defined—which implies that, even within a single society, this border does not always pass through the same place; in short, there is rarely a consensus.... By all accounts there is no single and intercultural universal concept defining what music might be, except that it is 'sound through time'." From Wikipedia under the

What kind of music gets you into that zone of concentration where you tune out everything else and just focus on what you are doing? Please, list specific songs, genres, and artists. I am looking for music to get because where I normally study is quite noisy and I want something to tune out the noise and help me focus. Thanks in advance!

Very similar to bands like The Band and The Grateful Dead, with elements of pop, psychadelia, country, and even some jazz influence. Very relaxing which is perfect for studying, but they can kick a groove too! Albums: Mr. Tambourine Man, Turn! Turn! Turn!, Fifth Dimension, Younger Than Yesterday, The Notorious Byrd Brothers, Ballad of Easy Rider, and Untitled And if you're not into buying albums, you can probably download these songs individually from whatever P2P site is cool these days.

Q. can music actually make a plant grow faster, if so what kind of music? If music doesnt do anything at all does silence make the difference? Asked by Thumper - Wed Jan 17 00:04:06 2007 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments A. I think they did an experiment on this way back in the 60's. It turned out, as I remember, that classical music made plants grow while hard rock (like metallica) actually killed them. But then maybe that was a flawed study done by rock and roll hating people. Honestly though, I personally think plants, and animals (including people) generally are calmer, more relaxed and even think better while listening to the so called 'classics' than to the more jarring and jangling 'contemporary' music.
