We are not aware all the time about our BIOS (Basic Input Output System) but
everything is based on it. Our BIOS (instincts) (between other useful things)
say to us to stay prominent all the time. Music is the ancient way to ask for
attention. Our modern music started somewhere in the past with simple noise.
Noise that make people run away is called "bad music". Noise that people never
end to enjoy is classical one.

If you have some impression that "asking for attention" is something bad, think
about birds. Their call for attention is called singing. The most marvellous
about their singing is the quality if their fixed performance. It became now so
good that you must be no more the next bird to enjoy this music.
