music creates feeling -
and each combination of notes, or
chord, has
its own feeling tone
a chord can evoke suspense, sadness, irritation,
mystery, peacefulness . . .
some musicians believe that among the almost
infinite number of possible chords there is one
that is special -
the lost chordwhen the notes of the lost chord are sounded,
those who really listen, will
hear something they've
never heard before
and they will
feel something that has not been felt
by anyone in a long, long time
this feeling would be life-changing, opening the
listener to a new world of experience
the hope of coming upon the lost chord has
often been felt by those who pick up a guitar,
or sit down at the piano
in the age of the internet, when we sit down
at the computer to surf the net, there is something
that echoes the hope for the lost chord
it is the hope of stumbling upon a unique combination
sights, sounds and information -
a combination that opens us up to a new way of
experiencing the world
it is a hope that keeps us surfing into the wee hours
of the morning
