How music makes me feel

Here is an opera inside my head which keeps spinning my world with emotions-----The Phantom of the Opera.

This astonishingly well-known opera has telling people a rather beautiful opera house love story that is breathtaking and full of music. It happened in nineteenth century; an ugly man wearing mask with talent of music lived in cave deep inside the opera house who had accidentally met a neglected singer that was gifted in singing. His obsession with that girl eventually turned to be scaring her away.

As everything had changed, she left and he, the phantom ,his love to her should be over. Having gone with the wind was his final decision.

While listening to their voices to the beautiful music, which makes me feel like my ears are full of sense of romantics and sometimes sadness. What is more, I could actually see how the story goes in my head when the opera is sung by those amazing voices. I love the words they sang

in sleep he sang to me,
in dreams he came ...
that voice which calls to me
and speaks my name ...

and do i dream again?

for now i find
the phantom of the opera is there -
inside my mind ...
phantom:
sing once again with me
our strange duet ...
my power over you
grows stronger yet ...’

It is simple to read but hard to comprehend, meaning these words are more than what they are. When you read them, you may think you understand what has been telling, however, what if you heard them spoken and sung? It would be a strange way. In the dark night, they found each other, with the gifts form the god. That is music that brought them together just because of spirits deep in their minds. These lyrics tell people a very beginning of the love story in a opera house. When she heard him somewhere, he sang his power was all over her which gave her strength. I love these lyrics because it gives me a sense of hope which is somehow mixed with signs. To me these words could show the very point of this opera.



Maybe due to the sense of music, I fell in love with the opera and the story being told immediately when I heard it. Even if, this is another means of showing music which is very different from playing the cello, however, to me it is all the same. As long as this is how we know about music, what a song or an opera intend to tell as well as how it does eventually, as a person who has been involved in music for years should have the same feelings for it.

From every lyric and rhyme, my heart is filled up with moving and love. My ears are busy catching each beat of the opera, which leads me to paradise

Nevertheless, The Phantom of the Opera is just a very fabulous sample of the world of music which has shown the spirit of music that people should be aware of in an obvious way. And music gives different people different feeling attaching to the hearts.
