My Music Philosophy

I like to think of music primarily as an activity.

In its most basic form, music consumption, the value of music can consist of the activity of active listening, interpretation of meaning, the activity of feeling and ruminating, of dancing or singing along. And we must not forget, the activity of social bonding and of political and poetic messaging.  

But I think music can be even more valuable as an activity we become more deeply involved in.

I am particularly keen on seeing music as a form of mental and physical exercise. Exercising one's mind, creativity, self-control, self-awareness and understanding. A form of meditation. Of living in flow, letting go of self-awareness. Exercising one's ‘mind's ear’ or ‘mind’s eye'. Exercising ones lungs and breath. Exercising one's dexterity, strength, fine motor skills and hand eye coordination. Exercising  self discipline and self-determination.
