Music do not have an enemy, everyone is as a matter of fact free to enjoy the peace that good music brings. But their are some benefits that comes with understanding music a bit better. I am of the opinion that a better understanding gives you the opportunity to enjoy music better.
Beyond the fact that I cannot do without listening to amazing music, there is this special joy that comes with gathering among friends to make good music. The knowledge that is being sheared is certainly like no other and they are born out of pure creativity. Come to think of it, musicians are probably the most creative set of humans in the planet.
Not being just a consumer in the world of music gives one the opportunity to explore. Beyond the fact that there are numerous social benefits attached, it gives one the opportunity to encounter the world. It gives one the chance to meet people and to go places in some cases. Another benefit of musical competence is that it enhances self expression. With music presenting you to people and places, you will be given the opportunity to express yourself in their mist. You can by extension learn the act of becoming bold and eloquent.
The most important benefit of being musically competent is the fact that it helps one become musically appreciative.
It really pays to have a deeper understanding of music, it helps one understand and appreciate every genre and style of music. Simply put, it helps one see the good in every music. It also gives one the skills of critical listening, a skill that will enable him or her understand music more than an average listener. With this skill, a true musician will be able to listen to music holistically. It is only by doing this that one would able to unbiasedly see the good in a music. Aside from becoming a critical listener, being musically appreciative also enhances emotional connection to music. The more you become musically inclined the more chance you stand to flow with the emotions of a music.
It is all about the one who wishes to become musical, he or she must first be passionate about music. It is by being passionate that one will see the need to learn. Given that music demands regular practice from the one who wishes to become musical, it is that same passion that will give a learner the strength to undergo the regorios practice that is required of him or her. As a matter of fact, even when a person must have acquired musical knowledge, the possibility of really becoming musical is dependent on how much practice that was put in after the knowledge must have been acquired. It could even be said that musical knowledge is really acquired after it must have been perfected through practice.
Music is good and it really pays to know whatever is possible about it. As a matter of fact, there are so many things to learn about music, so much so that no one can speak of understanding music entirely. That notwithstanding, it pays to be more than just a consumer in the world of music.
