A stunning pianist and a dear friend who I met here on the platform through our shared love of music and our Spanish connection. I hope to one day meet her in person and enjoy the Spanish sun accompanied by good music too!
Just spreading the good vibes that music brings.
Music is one of my true loves. I have written gratitude posts about it, it has helped me heal, create, release pent up emotions and has been a beautiful companion to my feelings for as long as I can remember. I am really grateful to have been asked to join in with this challenge and I look forward to seeing this go viral here on Hive. As my dear friend Hive account@riverflows so aptly puts it;
Music is medicine
The challenge aims are to listen to the music that has been shared with you. Once you have listened to it, write your reaction in the post. Next, it's your turn to share music and tag two people who you would like to join in this challenge.
Below are the full guidelines of the challenge:
Your reaction to the music that was shared with you
The song takes us on a journey, starting slowly and slightly haunting, the tempo quickly picks up to bring feelings of joy. I can imagine this being in a pivotal scene in an emotional movie where the protagonist is overcoming some adversity.
It is a really emotional piece of music that has this sense of duality to it. On the one hand, it is uplifting and inspiring but on the other, it offers a sad tone.
I feel depending on your emotional state when listening to this song it could be perceived one way or the other. I can also imagine a good speech being delivered with this music playing in the background or perhaps a beautiful modern dance routine, with a theme of the struggle of two lovers.
So many images spring to mind when I listen to this. It's simple, yet intricately beautiful at the same time. The changing tempo and contrast between the dynamics really help bring out the soul of this piece.
I think it is really beautiful and would happily listen to it many times.
My Music Selection.
The song that I am sharing with you is one that I discovered when we first moved offgrid. I like to listen to a variety of styles of music and this one, which is an instrumental, takes me back to the days of driving along the winding mountain tracks to our land. Whenever I listen to it, I can smell the pine trees and visualize the beautiful views across the Bajo Aragon area.
I look forward to the nominee's reaction to this song...
I'd like to invite Hive account@justinparke and Hive account@juliopalomo to take part in this challenge. Of course, it is also open to whoever is reading it too and not exclusive to the nominees. I look forward to reading and listening to the music in future posts.
