Welcome
I have been surrounded by themes and events about music lately. Music is the basis in all our lives, whether it is in the rhythms and sounds in nature such as bird song, the breeze rustling leaves, the beat of our hearts, the waves breaking on the shore, the sound of a tinkling brook or man made music in all its forms.
Music is all around us and it is important for us to choose wisely in what we listen to. Music is food for the soul!
A Magical Concert Experience
A few days ago I completed a reading of my book club selection “Music and Freedom” by Zoe Morrison. It has a powerful theme of the transformative powers of music and love. It got me thinking once again of the ways music affects us all. Then to synchronise this thinking I received an invitation, with a one hour notice, from a dear friend to attend a wonderful classical music concert at the Perth Concert Hall with world renown conductor Asher Fisch and fabulous pianist Jean-Yves Tibaudet. Music by Mendelssohn, Saint-Saens and Mahler enthralled the audience with the powerful and uplifting rhythms. What an amazing night!
Music and Transformation
In my book “Adventure into Transformation” I have written:
You enhance your transformation as you choose to listen to beautiful music whenever possible. With wonderful tones and rhythms, you bring your body and soul into perfect vibration, resonating in harmony with all that is the purist in sound and of the highest.
All beautiful music has its origin in the essence of angels. They bring forth the inspirational sounds that reach the composers of your music, so that your ears and feelings recognise those patterns of resonance that heal and soothe.
It certainly can rebalance, soothe and comfort us. Music is powerful and magical!!
Music and Driving
To once again reinforce my thoughts, just prior to writing this newsletter I picked up my copy of the latest Royal Automobile Club (RAC) magazine and spied an article titled “Can your music choice affect your driving?” The researchers discovered (of course!) that drivers who drove with easy-listening music, as opposed to drivers who listened to fast-paced music with vocals, were associated with the lowest level of driver errors!
So make time for engaging in wondrous upliftment and healing with your selection of divine music.
Have a magical and divinely uplifting month.
