Music

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Music is generally defined as the art of organizing and arranging sounds in a way that creates a cohesive and expressive auditory experience. It typically involves a combination of elements such as melody, harmony, rhythm, form, dynamics, and timbre, all of which contribute to its overall structure and emotional impact. Music can be instrumental or vocal, simple or complex, and it can serve a variety of purposes, including artistic expression, cultural storytelling, entertainment, and even therapeutic healing.
