What sonic qualities connects to you deeply and emotionally?


What type of sonics connect you deeply into an emotional level? Melody, lyrics, a specific instrument, a voice....?

For me, I love the sound of high pitch sounds like bells. I can easily get emotionally lost in violin playing in the uppermost registers.  I also love the sound of oboes.

Venue acoustics -

  • those little background echoes and reverberations
  • they add the reality otherwise missing
  • they provide the "height" of the venue

The passion imbued by the artist I think goes a long way in bringing tears to my eyes. By way of example, Over the Rainbow by Judy Garland. Pretty tune, pretty voice, Ho Hum! Now that same song sung by Eva Cassidy. The power and the passion  she brings to this song is incomparable and moves me greatly as no others do.  And so it goes. :-)
