Synopsis

Harmony and the Sacred reveals how music mirrors order, moral meaning, and healing in human life.

This thoughtful exploration argues that music points to a Creator and to a universe governed by harmony. It blends philosophy, theology, and musical insight to show how melodies and rhythms express beauty, law, and spiritual growth. Readers will encounter ideas about how music acts as a language that transcends culture, connecting listeners to deeper truth and healing.

  • How music is tied to universal laws and moral meaning
  • Connections between musical beauty, spirituality, and healing
  • Historical perspectives on music’s role in religion, education, and therapy
  • Case studies and reflections that frame music as a cosmic and personal force
Ideal for readers curious about the intersection of art, faith, and well-being, and for those who want a thoughtful, accessible view of how music reveals order in the world.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Preface All men are vitally and equally concerned in the true answer to the inevitable question as to the Cause of causes. The human mind cannot rest in mere phenomena, or in secondary agencies. The heart of man refuses to satisfy its undying hunger for a personal God and for personal immortality with anything short of reality. If in any art, science, philosophy, or supposed revelation there is valid help to be had toward meeting the imperative demand of human nature for absolute truth and imperishable love, it will find ardent welcome from every sane and candid person who thinks below the surface of life. The beautiful art and exact science of music promise such aid for the illumination and guidance heavenward of the soul of man, forever restless till it finds rest in God. This art has long claimed to be a fitting medium of communication between Deity and Humanity.
