Can you imagine your world without music..?

[semente]

A few seconds ago (in the history of mankind) there was no  such recorded/reproduced music.

 

Many people knew by heart sung popular or traditional unwritten music, some people played instruments as amateurs and others were professional singer-songmakers.

 

People of low and high class would entertain themselves with complex dances that involved large groups of participants.

 

 I believe this to be the case still in rural Afghanistan today, although probably segregated (men don’t generally socialise with women in Muslim countries, or Hindu countries for that matter).

 

Singing should be a fundamental right, like laughing (I am reminded of a scene from The Name of the Rose which takes place in the Middle Age Europe).
