Is Music Life?

Life is like a piece of music
Happy beginnings
Entering the New World
./ ./ ./ Dvorak’s New World Symphony ./ ./ ./
No worries
Just be carefree
./ ./ ./ Little Playmates from Suzuki’s piano book ./ ./ ./
But age comes at the development of the piece
Into a minor key
Showing trouble
Maybe a death in the family
Or losing a game
Or scoring bad on a test
./ ./ ./ Elgar’s Serenade for Strings ./ ./ ./
Or
./ ./ ./ Gorecki’s Symphony of Sorrowful Songs ./ ./ ./
Or
./ ./ ./ Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata ./ ./ ./
But the recapitulation lightens the mood again in a major key
Happiness returns
Fun with friends and family
./ ./ ./ Beethoven’s Ode to Joy ./ ./ ./
But a repeat :| bar could send you back to a minor key
Only to return to the happy major key
Is life like music?
Obviously
