Music is the one art we all have inside. We may not be able to play
an
instrument, but we can sing along or clap or tap our feet.
Have you
ever seen a baby bouncing up and down in the crib
in time to some
music? When you think of it, some of that baby's
first messages from his or her parents may have been lullabies, or at
least the music of
their speaking voices. All of us have had the
experience of hearing a
tune from childhood and having that
melody evoke a memory or a feeling.
The music we hear early on tends to stay with us all our lives.
