Music has been such a part of our human civilization since our existance. No part of human history didn't have some form of music.
Since the primitive times our ancestors are already musicians making use of materials which were available to them as they were able to wield and to create musical instruments. Utilizing animal skin they made their own version of drums and they used these musical instruments during their feasts and rituals.
We humans can easily be moved when anyone touches our emotions and that's exactly how mostly all of us finish up loving music. Music has the ability to touch or even control our emotions. Similar to music, painting and paintings can bring out emotions that we didn't know we had.
Let us look at history and discover how music touches the various feelings of the people. In a course of a tribal war in the olden times they mostly brought with them a sort of drum corps. The duty of the drum corps is to constantly play battle hymns to incentivize and enhance the morale of the fighters. During the course of the American Civil war there were also drum corps playing all varieties of tunes which depend on the situation, in the course of a war they would play fast and brave tunes expecting to touch the emotion of the squaddies making them go with the beat of the drums. When the Titanic crashed into an iceburg and slowly sunk into the deep cold waters the musicians continually played calm and assuring tunes so as to stop people from panicking.
Painting can also be tracked back through time in that artists, taking oil painting workshop classes and the likes, and paintings were icons of that time. Since the ancient times people have found the advantages of music as it not only sooths our emotions it can also actually influence us on the way that we act. By instinct, people impetuously follow their feelings, if we listen to a gorgeous love song we have a tendency to fall completely in love and motivate to court the lady that we like. If we hear fast rock music we also feel a bit like that there's a sense of urgency that we tend to move fast and quickly. And when it is time to lay back and relax we hear acoustic renditions and classical music to scale down our nerves and help us to relax. That's why music since time immemorial was generally acknowledged as a form of art without question.
