Music (from the Greek: μουσική [τέχνη] - mousikē [téchnē], "the art of the muses") is, according to the traditional definition of the term, the art of sensibly and logically organizing a coherent combination of sounds and silences using the principles fundamental of melody, harmony and rhythm, through the intervention of complex psycho-psychic processes. The concept of music has evolved since its origin in Ancient Greece, where poetry, music and dance were united without distinction as unitary art. For several decades now, the definition of what music is and what it is not has become more complex, since leading composers, within the framework of diverse border artistic experiences, have produced works that, although they could be considered musical, expand the limits of the definition of this art.
