when we listen to music or view art we feel emotions attached to this. When a composor writes music or an artist paints art, he/she will often talk of the emotions they felt as they did so.
On this premise, are art and music emotional expressions?

This might interest you.
Personally, I believe art has both elements of skill as well as emotional expression. But I'm inclined to give more importance to the emotional value that art has to the audience and artist. But I do appreciate work with a lot of subtlety and fine detail. The works which have a good mixture of both are usually the ones we remember.

Most true. It seems that some artists or musicians just have something in the way that they paint or play or whatever that makes them the ones that we remember. For example, no one forgets hearing Pavaroti.

Isn't this almost a given? (At least in many cases. I'm not positing Nelly is really emotional about his hoes and 40's.)

I think that it is a given that emotion can be linked to art and music, but the discussion is really asking the question of whether not they are just emotional expressions or whether there is more to it than that!

Maybe I'm just not hip with regards to aesthetics but, what would this something else which these songs are be other than a 'song?' I guess I'm just not understanding.
