About music

What is music? Books, treatises, and encyclopedias have been written on the subject. But sometimes thoughts can be expressed in a page, in a sentence, in a word. In this article, the reader will find a hundred answers (and even more) in a short and aphoristic form about what music is...

On November 3, 1991, Freddy officially announced that he had AIDS... And just the next day, his fight against the disease was over... He died quietly at home, surrounded by family and friends... The world was shocked. Freddy kept his illness a secret and no one, except the people closest to him, suspected that the end was so near. Fans all over the world sent flowers and postcards, and many went to London just to stand at his house. A small funeral ceremony took place at the crematorium three days after his death...

Barcelona's album, the duo of Freddy and Montserrat, was released on October 10, 1988. The evening on the occasion of the presentation was traditionally extravagant, and it was held in Crash Bar in the opera building Covent Garden - a very suitable place for such an event. On December 4th, The Cross gave a concert at the Hammersmith Palace exclusively for members of the fan club. The guests on stage were Brian and John. The Miracle album was released on May 22, 1989, and took 1st place in the British charts...

When the concert was finally shown, it was the first case of simultaneous radio and television broadcasting by the Independent British Radio Network and the 4th television channel. Since then, such an experiment has not been repeated anymore - possibly because each independent UK radio station needs to be equipped with a satellite “dish” to catch sound via satellite. Queen went down in history again on July 27 (it seems to have become a habit for the band!) When they performed in Budapest at the Nepstadion stadium...

In June 1984, Roger Strange Frontier released his second solo album. Also in June, Guild Guitars released a copy of Brian's Red Special homemade guitar. She was named BHM1, and Brian himself followed all stages of its production. Unfortunately, a year later, Brian and Guild had a dispute over the design of the tool, and Guild stopped production. In August, Queen went to Belgium - this was the beginning of The Works tour. In October, they ended up in Bofutatswan in South Africa and gave a series of concerts in Sun City at the famous Super Bowl Stadium...

Their very first concert in South America took place in Buenos Aires on February 28, 1981. They filled 3 of the most famous Argentinean stadiums, which host world cup competitions, giving 5 sold-out concerts in just 8 days. Then, two evenings, they performed at the huge Morumbi stadium in Sao Paulo. 131,000 people came on the first evening, after which Queen entered the history of rock, breaking the world record for attendance of paid concerts given by one group. And for all those two evenings at...

In February 1978, Queen decided that they should have their management. Breaking up with John Reed was much more friendly than breaking up with Trident. The contract was signed in the backseat of Freddy’s Rolls Royce during the break between filming the We Will Rock You video in the garden behind Roger's house in Surrey! A short tour of Europe began in April 1978 - and again from Stockholm. In July, the group began work on a new album, which they first recorded outside the UK - in Montreux and France...

When in 1975 the group decided to release Bohemian Rhapsody, everyone told them that such a long song - 5 min 55 sec - could not become a hit. But Freddy gave a copy of the record to his friend DJ Kenny Everett, warning that it was for him that he had no right to broadcast the song. But, of course, he did not obey and within two days scrolled it 14 times! Since then, the song began to be played on all large radio stations, broadcasting completely. It was a huge success, and thanks to him Queen appeared as a group of the century...

In 1968, two London students - Brian May and Tim Staffell - decided to organize a group. On the bulletin board of his Imperial college, Brian posted a note saying they needed a drummer like the Ginger Baker, which was answered by a young medical student, Roger Meddows-Taylor. He became the drummer of a group called Smile. In 1969, Smile signed a contract with Mercury Records and in the same year began working in the Trident Recording Studio. Tim Staffell soon introduced Freddie Mercury, a fellow at Ealing College of Art, to the group...

Music is one of the most fabulous expressions of the human being since it manages to immediately transmit different sensations that other art forms may not be able to. Music is a complex system of sounds, melodies, and rhythms that man has discovered and developed to obtain an infinite number of different possibilities. It is estimated that music has great importance for the human being since it allows him to express fears, joys, very deep feelings of different kinds. Music allows us to channel those feelings and make the person relieve their sorrows or grow their joy depending on the case...
