Broadly defined as the art of arranging sounds in time, music features in some form in every single human culture across the entire planet – including Europe!
Music is a daily feature of our lives that can make us want to dance and sing, invoke some of our happiest/saddest memories and has the unique power to take us back to a moment in time with just sound… I mean, that’s just incredible!
