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 sensibly and logically organizing a coherent combination of sounds and silences using The fundamental principles of melody, harmony and rhythm, through the intervention of complex psycho-psychic processes. The concept of music has evolved since its origin in Ancient Greece, where poetry, music and dance were united without distinction as unitary art. For some years now, the definition of what music is and what it has not become more complex, since leading composers, within the framework of diverse border artistic experiences, have produced works that, although they could be considered musical, expand the limits of the definition of this art.
Music, like all artistic manifestations, is a cultural product. The purpose of this article is to elicit an aesthetic experience in the listener.
