While some people feel that music is an art form, others believe it to be a science. However, there are very specific ways in which music flows and when it comes down to the individual notes, everything has a specific meaning. Music is an intricate web of sounds that intertwines with one another in order to create the perfect melody or rhythm. Prelude means “a piece of music that comes before the main part”. The word is an abbreviation of the Latin word ‘praeambulum’, which translates to “a piece played before the dance”.
