Music & Noise




One man's music could be noise for another man. Noise apparently is
collection of random sounds having absolutely no pattern or
periodicity. Music on the other hand have patterns, simple or complex,
fast or slow in tempo. Noise also have an essential component; energy!
But music can also have bursts of energy. As a teenager I thought
'Naach meri jaan phata phut'
was great song to gyrate but later in life the same song is no more
than irritating noise. Then there is folk music which probably evolved
with our need to make rhythmic movement to sounds or may be vice
versa, therefore have energy as an essential element. The relationship
between dance and music is apparent, perhaps extension of animal pre-
sex act, a celebration of life.

And then most arts forms imitate a pattern of building up gradual
tempo to reach a climactic crescendo as in classical ragas or western
classical music. Pop music though begins and ends with relentless
assault of energy filled percussion sounds.

Does life imitate classical style music, a pattern of gradual ripening
of taste for less energy but more subtlety? In that sense music canvas
of a young man is much larger as he enjoys all kinds of music without
inhibitions on the other hand he has little focus nor long attention
span.

Music is different things to different people.
