Language andMusic.
Language andmusic. Both of these terms play a great role in peoples’ life.Let’s give definitions of these terms:
Languageis human speech, either spoken or written. It comes from the Latinword “lingua”, meaning tongue,and a language still is often called a tongue.
Musicis sound arranged into pleasing or interesting patterns. It forms animportant part of many cultural and social activities.
What are thecommon between these two different words?Well, at first, music as the language has their own symbols. Inlanguage it is phonemes (in oral speech) or morphemes (in writtenspeech) and in music it is tone (sound) or note.
In a majority,any language have an alphabet. Western musicians name the tones of ascale with the first eight letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H(Russian musicians usually name them as Do (Ut), Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, Laand Si).
If the languageis a way of communication between people, music is a language ofmusic instruments. As language has its own styles (for example, publicistic style (artistic), informational style, declamatory style(oratorial), etcetera), music has such music styles as classical,folklore, popular.
Music issounded due to musical instruments and the peoples who play on its.
The samephoneme may be writing down by the various combinations of letters.For example, [f] – “f”, “ph”, “ff”.
In music thesame sound may have various names; E = F flat, G = F double sharp = Adouble flat.
Aside from allthis, language and music give people opportunities to express theirfeeling, emotions and ideas.
But there aresome difference between these terms. The language of music is one foreverybody and people create music when they are impressed byhappiness, grief, melancholy, love, etc. When people do researches,invent, philosophize, etc. they create new designations, symbols,words.
Thus due tomusic we can express our emotions and feelings more brilliant andcolorful. Due to language we can express our thoughts, views, ideasmore exactly.
