November 22nd International Musician Day

Music is our messenger from the world

Each November 22nd, music and those who make it have their own celebration called ‘Musician Day’. This is the story of this date that fills the people who reach millions of hearts through this art with pride.

And who does not like music? It is practically impossible to find a human being who does not enjoy music. Another different thing is the style of music.

But in general we all like it. The reason is the fact that it is in our genes. Regardless of its genre, music is able to change our mood by reducing sadness, stress and making us feel better.

 Why is Musician Day celebrated?

The date of November 22 commemorates the death of Saint Cecilia, patroness of musicians. This Christian martyr was portrayed in the 15th century by artists of the time, always playing the harp or other musical instruments. This is why she has been so associated the art of music.

The first celebrations date back to Edinburgh in 1695. Subsequently, countries such as Germany, Spain and France joined the celebrations. In Latin America, Brazil was the pioneering country in celebrating a party on November 22nd, starting between 1919 and 1920, eventually spread to the rest of the Ibero-American countries.

Finally, next Monday, November 22, 2021, we wish a happy Musician Day to those who make this art. A reality for the millions of people’s benefit.

Music (from the Greek: μουσική [τέχνη] – mousikē [téchnē], “the art of the muses”) is, according to the traditional definition of the term, the art of creating and organizing sounds and silences while respecting the basic principles of melody, harmony and rhythm, through the intervention of complex psychochemical processes.

Another different thing is the style of music. But in general we all like
It is practically impossible to find a human being who does not enjoy music.

The concept of music has been evolving since its origin in Ancient Greece, when poetry, music and dance were united without distinction to a unitary art. For several decades now, the definition of what is and what it is not music has become more complex, since prominent composers in the framework of diverse border artistic experiences have performed works that, while they could be considered musical, expand the boundaries of the definition of this art.

Music, as any artistic manifestation, is a cultural product with various purposes such as, among others, bringing out an aesthetic experience in the listener, expressing feelings, emotions, circumstances, thoughts or ideas, and increasingly, fulfilling an important therapeutic function through music therapy.

Lyrics and Music by Johnny Zamot & Sociedad 76
