Music,
as with all art, is a statement of the culture and society which produced
it. It can be a powerful comment on who we are. The music
you listen to (consume!) is even a reflection of who you are. The question really is: Can you use music to change
your world? How?
As a listener? As a performer? As a composer? Music can
be a powerful tool in the hands of anyone who knows how to use it. As
you contemplate the stories you have learned about our music, I challenge
you to be
a music maker - a mover and shaker in the world where you live.

We are the music makers, We are the dreamers of dreams, Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams:-- World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams: We are the movers and shakers Of the world for ever, it seems. -Arthur O'Shaughnessy- |
