Is music the highest form of Art?
Music is indeed a form of Art. Apart from being an art form itself it also brings together a number of other aspects from various Art forms. Music brings together imagery, poetry and all of its aspects, while also encorporating and communicating emotions, messages, and thoughts. Music can also spark memories and bring simple pleasure for whoever listens. But not only is music special in the uses and what it can do to people but also how music is heard.
Hearing is a very unique sense. Hearing is a modified and highly hightened sense of touch. When someone is hearing a sound and more importantly hearing a song they enjoy, the music is touching them physically and internally. This hearing or "feeling" of art, along with all the other unique qualities of music, is why I can agree when some philosophers say that Music is the Highest Form of Art.
