WELCOME TO MY HOME! It is my hope that your experience here will leave you feeling inspired. inspire Pronunciation: in-'spIr Function: verb Inflected Form(s): inspired; inspiring Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French & Latin; Middle French inspirer, from Latin inspirare, from in- + spirare to breathe transitive senses 1 a : to influence, move, or guide by divine inspiration b : to exert an animating, enlivening, or exalting influence on c : to spur on : IMPEL, MOTIVATE 2 a archaic : to breathe or blow into or upon archaic : to infuse (as life) by breathing 3 : to draw forth or bring out 4 : INHALE 1 5 a : BRING ABOUT, OCCASION: INCITE - inspirer noun Why does man sing? Why does music motivate and thrill humans? Before you answer don’t look to science. Science is unable to explain why humans can compose music, invent and play musical instruments, or even why we enjoy music and song. It is all a baffling mystery! Dr. Lewis Thomas, who is affiliated with the Scientists’ Institute for Public Information, has observed: “If you are looking about for really profound mysteries, essential aspects of our existence for which neither the sciences nor the humanities can provide any sort of explanation, I suggest starting with music. The professional musicologists, for whom I have the greatest respect, haven’t the ghost of an idea about what music is, or why we make it and cannot be human without it, or evenand this is the telling pointhow the human mind makes music on its own, before it is written down and played. The biologists are no help here, nor the psychologists, nor the physicists, nor the philosophers, wherever they are these days. Nobody can explain it. It is a mystery. . . . The Brandenburgs [concertos by J. S. Bach] and the Late Quartets [by Beethoven] . . . carry the news that there are deep centers in our minds that we know nothing about except that they are there.” Can you explain Music? Please feel free to leave your thoughts and comments on my message board. This is the first topic of many I hope that we will be able to discuss and enjoy. The purpose of course is to be an inspiration to each other. This is certainly the benefit of having a direct artist to consumer outlet. No middleman and no barriers to break down. Perhaps another discussion is where did inspiration originate? Please let your voice be heard and please pass the word. If you enjoy the music and your experience here it is our hope that this project will organically grow by word of mouth and recommendations from others. Thank you for visiting and I am looking forward to hearing from you. Much love to you all.
