And, interestingly enough, it is WESTERN Classical Music that is studied.
China has its own Classical Music, but it has a different cadence, a different pattern of rhythm, and different scales than Western Music. The same can be said of Indian Classical Music.
I actually enjoy Eastern music, but in very small doses.
Then it’s Back to Bach for me!

Very interesting. I wonder if there’s such thing as a type of music that makes you dumber.

Wakeman’s a good keyboard player . . . but the last time I saw him he was nowhere near as good as he used to be. Six Wives was kind of the high point.

Some of the Indian Classical Music out there is purely divine.
It uses similar scales as Western Classical Music, but has a much older history, and often, more complex melodies.

Very interesting. I wonder if theres such thing as a type of music that makes you dumber. After four years of careful study I think that the songs that makes you the dumbest are (in order) Hail Columbia and Hail to the Chief.
