Meaning Of Arts And Music
Arts:
Art is the expression of human creativity and imagination through various means, such as painting, drawing, music, or sculpture.
Arts serve as a medium for individuals to communicate, explore emotions, and showcase cultural identities.
Music:
Music is an organized and intentional arrangement of sounds that is pleasing to the ear. It involves elements such as melody, harmony, rhythm, and dynamics. Music can be created through the use of instruments, the human voice, or a combination of both.
