MUSIC FOR DANCING WITH WEAPONS

MUSIC HAS PLAYED A PART IN TRAINING AND THE TELLING OF TRADITIONAL STORIES OFTEN VIA DANCE SINCE ANCIENT TIMES. IN TRIBAL SOCIETY CHANTS, AND PERCUSSION INSTURMENTS UP TO THE PRESENT TIME WITH FULLY ORCHESTRATED MARCHES. MAKEING A LOT OF NOISE BEFORE BATTLE OR DURING TRAINING WORKS THE WARRIORS UP AND KEEPS THEM FROM DWELLING ON THE FACT THAT THEY ARE MORTAL. THE LOUD SOUNDS OF MANY WARRIORS YELLING, STOMPING AND BANGING SHIELDS ALONG WITH DRUMS OR BAGPIPES DOES SERVE TO DISTURB THE ENEMY.
MUSIC IS USED IN MOVIES TO MANIPULATE THE EMOTIONS OF THE AUDIENCE. IN A MARTIAL KATA OR DISPLAY GOOD MUSIC WILL ENHANCE THE PERFORMANCE. A POOR CHOICE OF MUSIC CAN TAKE AWAY FROM A GOOD ROUTINE. PLAYING MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB DURING A SWORD DEMONSTRATION WOULD TURN IT INTO A COMEDY ROTUINE REGARDLESS OF THE SKILL OF THE PRACTICIONER.
THE MUSIC IN THE FIRST MUSIC CLIP REMINDED ME A LITTLE OF THE MUSIC IN THE GOOD THE BAD AND THE UGLY MOVIE.
MUSIC IS A BIT OFF TOPIC BUT PLAYS AN IMPORTANT PART IN ETHINOGRAPHIC SOCIETY AS WELL AS IN THE MORE MODERN SOCIETY. IT IS ENJOYED IN ALL CULTURES OF MAN REGARDLESS IF THEY ARE ENEMYS OR ALLIES.
