DOES MAGIC MUSIC COME FROM SINGING LIPS OR FINGER TIPS.

Some Life Quotes:
Music is a life medicine !
Music is one tough gig !
The reality for many independent musicians is the path to success is long and filled with obstacles. According to a survey conducted by Musician’s Union in 2022, 90% of independent musicians report that they do not make a full-time living from their music.
Of the remaining 10%, the majority still rely on supplementary income sources such as teaching music, session work, or part-time jobs..
It is in our own inerests to be supporting and encouraging young talent to keep going.
THE GREATER NUMBER SIMPLY CONTRIBUTE TO THE MAGIC.
AN ENDURING CONTRIBUTION TO A NATIONS COMMUNITY.
Success is often measured in business dollars or property values, an individual has accumulated.
Such benefits to the nation are fleeting and more often than not, restricted to a very small number.
The measure of shared creativity in music, and the arts benefits to the nation cannot be overstated.
THE QUESTION RISES, WHAT AND WHERE IS THE SOURCE OF MUSIC .
ANSWER PLAIN, THE COMPLETE DEPTH, IT COMES FROM THE HIPS:
WHERE THEY BE YOUR MUSCLE, NERVES, OR REPRODUCTIVE NEEDS.
WHERE ALL OUR BODY AND SOUL ENERGIES MIX ALIGN AND COLIDE.
Had a musical experience while travelling round our Aus.
A meet with a talent rich young couple of Liam and Gaby.
The scene it was in Longreach town at ‘Aussie Outback Tours’
Of instruments and song, of the duo band of music ‘Wicker Suite’
When classically trained violinist mixes with multi-instrument choice.
To complete the scene add a slice of bluegrass and country music cross.
Listened in awe to a particularly engaging instrumental and musical refrain.
For a man not musical in any way, it left a haunting memory sitting the brain.
Witnessing the darting fingers, changing keys at rapid speed, perfectly in time.
Music a creative art expressed, similar to the paint brush and written word.
Thrust out with body bold, multiple points of release demanding to be heard.
Body natural energies all join and distribute from the central region of the hip.
Makes perfect sense for musical release is from the hip, not lips or finger tips.
