Music takes you on a fantastic journey!

At three concerts yesterday, Strings of Silk Music journeyed to Mars aboard Star Trek with E.T., Aurora Scitech and the Fox Valley Orchestra!  The presentation of the universe and music was orchestrated by the presenters from Scitech and conductor, Brian Groner.

Music is a phenomenal scientific vehicle!  Did you know that Pythagoras was the father of mathematics and the 12 tone scale?  And what about spatial relationships?  It begins at an early age and music supports its development.  And anyone who has had a desire to study music knows the importance of time – as in time management – you have to make the time to practice!  And then there is the science of how does an instrument make sound – through vibrations in the air and sadly, that means there is no music in space…or is there?

And it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know about music having an effect on the audiences in Aurora – love is love and they loved it!!
