Sound design

In a giant room, there are speakers on the ceiling. But, they, themselves, are lost. They have no meaning. For the sounds on stage and the sounds in their hearts are strong enough to surpass the speakers on the ceiling. Turn off the mics. Turn off the lights. And the soul coming from their heads and their fingertips will knock you down. They will put you on the floor. Because their music has its own form. And the speakers on the ceiling are needed no more. The words above describe how I felt…

His heels danced musically leaving the ground as suddenly as a spring storms as if each stone burned like a scorching coal filled with passionate intensity. Feverish with anticipation the clamorous anarchy of his mear footsteps echoing off the narrow brick walls; abruptly broken by deafening silence of anticipation.

Sometimes I will pop my knuckles consciously, while other times, the need comes absentmindedly. Every time I lay down for bed I pop my toes…weird I know, but popping has become a part of me. Why you might ask? Cracking and popping used to be something I did when I was bored or nervous. Now, it is just a way…

The growl was closer. Gabe opened his eyes and raised his rifle, holding it ready to fire. The warm fire, the sweet wine, and the steady rain had made him forget and dose. This time he threw a handful of rock dust toward the eyes and heard the animal snort and crash down the hill in the brush. At least, he knew the animal was a black bear.

She could register what surrounded her without actually being able to see. Sam knew the way out from her current location, but she needed to find the boys first. Surrounded by complete silence she…

The one quote that summarizes this whole book completely, comes pretty late during the analysis. “Music may be the activity that prepared our pre-human ancestors for speech communication and for the very cognitive, representational flexibility necessary to become humans.” (Daniel J. Levitin, 260.) This quote pretty much expresses the full meaning of this book, which is to explain the innate importance and development of music.
