The Webster Dictionary define music as : The art of combing tones so that they can be, expressive or intelligible.

Music : Sound that have rhythm, harmony and melody.

I believe, music is the bridge between heaven and earth.

This simply means, the composition of melodies and harmonies in order to create beautiful sounds which is instrumental in fostering a specific ambiance, e.g. emotional and mental expression of love.

The vibratory energy emanating from the melody empowers the human spirit, soothing the very core of our soul with a profound feeling of serenity and heavenly bliss, thus impacting the human psyche both emotionally and mentally.

The melody and harmony of a song can strongly influence how it impacts an audience. Music

creates an atmosphere of deep thought. It forces the body to respond to the rhythm of the music.

The expression of joy, praise and thanksgiving in most gospel music leaves one feeling an inextricable bounding with God thus opening the gate bridging Heaven and Earth.

I am assuming we all have heard the stories, during the years of slavery, the slaves used music as a form of therapy to keep them sound minded and stress free.

The sweet harmony in their singing created a solid bound in their relationships. It penetrated their consciousness and strengthened their survival instinct. That effect epitomizes the power of music which was fully understood by the slaves which was then inherited by their dependence today and in turn to all lovers of music to this day.

Of course there exist all genres of music, and although I can only name a few, among my favorites are Jazz, and we can proudly acclaim our very own internationally

renowned Boo Hinkson who is well-known for his classy jazz.

Ragged music follows, and I cannot think Reggae if I don’t mention Bob Marley- ONE LOVE-promoting peace and unity and Wake up and live-two of the most powerful songs ever composed.

Rihanna, our very own Caribbean super star, who sang Califonia King Bed, one of my favorite songs, created a revolution in the music industry. In my humble opinion she redefined the fun and party atmosphere.

Beyonce- is musical phenomenon and her Ave Marie song took my breath away. AMAZING!

The revolution of music, disco, soul. R&B, soft melodies, all Caribbean genres and our own solo music, folk and quadrille are among the many that have uplifted my spirit and foster a deep feeling of inner bliss.

My fellow friends,

We have experience music in all forms and styles and even how it can strongly impact the performing arts as of all other arts.

Clothing & textile, dancing, photograph, visual arts, painting, colors,has an effect on the type of music creating that ambiance which can make or break a performance.

Music the medicine for worries, sadness, and romance. It is in music we offer the highest form of praise to God.

Music cures sickness of body, mind, soul and spirit.

Fellow friends, let’s put some music on and dance the COVID-19 stress away.
