Sadly it never comes to mind, though. When a person says they like art, it is generally assumed to be something along the lines of drawing or other crafts. Very rarely does poetry, acting, singing, or even cooking come to mind. An art is simply a manner of expressing some idea or another.

I think it's an art ^+^ If it wasn't then poetry wouldn't be an art!

Some quotes about music.

A painter paints pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence. ~Leopold Stokowski

If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music. ~Gustav Mahler

Music is what feelings sound like. ~Author Unknown


Music is the universal language of mankind. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Outre-Mer

Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. ~Victor Hugo

Music is the art which is most nigh to tears and memory. ~Oscar Wilde

Music is an outburst of the soul. ~Frederick Delius

Music expresses feeling and thought, without language; it was below and before speech, and it is above and beyond all words. ~Robert G. Ingersoll

Music is the literature of the heart; it commences where speech ends. ~Alphonse de Lamartine

Music is the shorthand of emotion. ~Leo Tolstoy

After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~Aldous Huxley, Music at Night and Other Essays

YES! Thank you, finally someone who gets it. I hate when people assume that art is only pictures. but music is just as much art as anything else.
