The Sound of May Book Tag!

In honor of The Sound of May, I wanted to make a tag for all of you to do! Hopefully it's fun. 1. What are your earliest memories of music in your life? Did you have any favorite songs or musicians as a child? Is there one musical memory from your childhood or adolescence that sticks out in your mind? 2. Were you ever or are you currently in any music program (choir, orchestra, band, theater)? Do you play any instruments or sing recreationally? 3. Is there any album that you consider musically perfect or near-perfect? This can include popular music, symphonies, Broadway musical/film scores, etc. 4. Who are some musicians that you wish people knew more about? It can be from any genre. You are limited to 3. For each one you list, attach a piece/song to them. 5. Is there a novel/poem you have read that you believe captures the beauty and transformative power of music? What about nonfiction? 6. Who is a musician that everyone seems to love but you just can’t stand or understand the appeal of? You are limited to 3. The more hateful, the better. 7. Which is more important to the song: the music/melody or the lyrics? 8. What constitutes music verses noise? Where do you draw the line? Must music always have a melody or can it take on other forms? 9. If you were to introduce yourself to someone through sharing a playlist with them, what songs would be on that playlist? 10. Music itself has no practical purpose. It does not cure diseases, feed/clothe you, or protect you from being attacked. So what is the purpose of music for humans? Why do YOU listen to music? 11. Tag other people to do this! #booktags #reading #books #musiclovers #music
