Comments on: My definitions of music and art (at least for this week) http://www.dailygenesis.com/2007/12/16/my-definitions-of-music-and-art-at-least-for-this-week/ Hi, I'm Tim, and this is my blog.

As I read your posting, I began to think about collegiate degree distinctions: Master of Arts (which often includes business, theology, and education degrees among other "non-artistic" degrees, and the Master of Fine Arts, which is restricted to visual art, theatre, music, dance, film, and perhaps graphic design.) So perhaps there is a a narrowing down of the definition of art as we thin of it in terms of "arts" and "fine arts." I think your definition of music is right on target. With your skill and talent for music theory, I trust your opinions on the matter. Wow, what a deep blog posting.

I think your definition of music is right on target. With your skill and talent for music theory, I trust your opinions on the matter.

I don't have any deep, philosophical thoughts to share, but I do agree with your opinion that a metaphysical meaning is required for there to be music. I love music because it brings out my emotions, and those emotions are drawn out by the deeper meaning behind a rhythmic collection of notes. I like your answer, Tim.
