You Can Call Me Mr. Angry Eyes!

Many people think that classical music is not worth their time because it does not represent what they are feeling. They feel that they can only find things that show how mad, sad, or happy they are in their favorite modern composer. While they can find many of their emotions in the popular music of today they truly can find these same emotions in classical music. You can experience mad  classical music if you listen to the piece “Night on Bald Mountain". You can experience sad classical music if you listen to “Adagietto from Symphony no. 5” written by Gutav Mahler. You can also experience happy classical music if you listen to "Symphony No. 6, 3rd Movement" by Beethoven. While each of these pieces depicts a different mood they are not the only moods to be found in classical music. Just like the composers of today write what they are feeling, classical composers write the emotions they are feeling and so you can find every emotion in classical music.

Classical music can relate to so many different emotions because of the wide variety of instruments the composers have to use. The reason these instruments help create different moods is because of how they are built and what notes they are playing. Emotion is also created by how the instruments play the notes given to them. There are two main ways of playing these notes. The first is smoothly-which gives you the chance to make sad, moody music. The second way of playing different notes is short, which is very good for extremely mad music but can also provide a happy bouncy feeling. These are a few reasons why classical music is able to represent people’s emotions.
