And all meet in singing, which braids together the different knowings into a wide and subtle music, the music of living.

About This Quote

The ancient Greeks defined music as “the science of harmonious sounds.” This definition includes the idea that music is not just something you hear, but also something you observe. Music is one of the most beautiful things in the world because it transcends the boundaries of time and space. All of our senses are so used to listening to music that we tend to forget this fact about it. But standing still, watching it, even long after the song has ended, you can feel it in your bones.

It is a part of you that connects you to everyone around you. You can’t help but feel the love in the air when there are people singing together.
