Music is the art of arranging sounds in time through the elements of melody , harmony,rhythm and timbre.
It is also said to be the universal language and also the language of the soul.
Musical genres include: rock, pop, jazz, country music.
I totally agree with the definition that “music is a universal language and also a language of the soul".This is because, although most humans cannot sing out,they have it singing in their head.A particular song defines a person,they can find solace there and ofcourse relate.
For me, music is a “Burden Lifter".It is capable of taking away anger,mood swings,some sort of depression, weariness,and most importantly a way of connecting with the maker(GOD).It relaxes the mind and gives a sense of belonging.
I'll be sharing my little experience,which links to:

Tell us about your personal musical or singing ability, talent or experiences.
I am a huge fan of gospel music,tho I listen to other kinds.
I am an Alto singer tho I'm trynna perfect myself in Tenor.I have come to realize that singing more than three voice types is attainable with undiluted practice.Listening to songs by TASHA COBBS LEONARD,MERCY CHINWO,KIERRA SHEARD,SINACH etc makes me yearn for more.
When ministering a song,I would say it's best done by connecting with the source(GOD).Where you rehearse like you have no help and depend on God for Grace like you haven't rehearsed.It takes Grace,proper rehearsals and not just a good voice to connect and touch the lives of people.
Here I took the lead for a song titled “I am ready for your spirit" by SINACH.
First, starting the song with all strength it required and depending on God for Grace...I felt like I still couldn't connect or even do better.Here and then,I had to build my confidence and still trust for Grace.
It suddenly felt like a chilly breeze blew and a heavy weight was lifted off me.The crowd began to connect and I could flow very well with the piece.
I didn't know when I began to tear,strike higher than I thought I could and surprisingly,my voice didn't break.
After the ministration,the place was still saturated,lives were touched and I stood there amazed😯 and just wondering...like what just happened?🤷🏽.
I still couldn't get the song off my head for days,I felt like a very heavy burden was lifted off me,I felt fulfilled and very relaxed.
This led me back to music being a language of the soul.It did help me connect with my source and to the souls of the others in attendance.
Nothing could have done this except MUSIC.
