Music

Music 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 fundamental principles of melody, harmony and rhythm.
Music, like any artistic manifestation, is a cultural product. The end of this art is to arouse an aesthetic experience in the listener, and express feelings, emotions, circumstances, thoughts or ideas. 

Elements of Music
The melody is a set of sounds — conceived within a particular sound field — that sound successively one after another (horizontal conception), and which is perceived with identity and self-consciousness.

Harmony, under a vertical conception of sonority, and whose basic unit is the chord or triad, regulates the concordance between sounds that sound simultaneously and its link with neighboring sounds.

The rhythm, is the end result of the previous elements, sometimes with very noticeable variations, but in a very general appreciation it is the ability to generate contrast in the music, this is provoked by the different dynamics, timbres, textures and sounds.
