RE: Within you - The realm of silence
As you sit here reading, you can pay attention to the words, but also to the silence that is all around you. It is everywhere, in between every sound. It is strange that the sounds could not happen without the silence there. The sound merely stands out from it.
I love that. And it's so true. One of the things that my music teachers used to stress was the importance of the rests, the silences. Those were just as important as the notes themselves. They were what gave the music its shape.
me also! i was thinking of that how we only think of sound in the audible sense-we just consider noise to be sound but in reality, silence is more significant than sound. thank you for reading and your awesome point! by the way i completely remember my teacher also saying how the rest and silence between notes were as important as the notes played themselves. awesome comment.
