Let Music Be Your Joy!

By Marion Hall

You come home from work mentally and physically exhausted. And stressed! That's not the half of it. Its all you can do to plop into your easy-chair and close your eyes. But after a nap you are not refreshed. In fact often you are worse than ever. What you really need is something that will undo the stresses of the day and provide you with a real mental release from the day's stresses.

Those of us that already play an instrument know the mental refreshment music provides. Its not the same as listening to music. That's what teenagers do, and sometimes it just hypes them up and brings out the aggression. But that is a clue as to how music can tap into the human emotions and relieve the spirit of all the daily stresses and strains. Yes, whether we play Beethoven or Debussy, music connects into the human spirit and enables us to release all those daily stresses and strains.

After a tough day at work there's nothing better than time at the keys playing works of great passion and intensity. Whether it is the Moonlight Sonata or just Home on the Range, it lifts the spirit and brings great joy. Another advantage of playing music is that it keeps the mathematical faculties functioning. Many of my students originally took up playing to assist with their maths. Its a little known fact that playing an instrument also helps a child in their maths at school.

But the greatest reward of all is that music brings you a great relief from stress and emotional turmoil. Learn to play and lift your spirit. Let music be your joy.
