With as early as the establishment of the first human civilization, music has been a part of our lives in one way or another. Some people use it as an expression of their feelings, some as a way of communicating, and some just for entertainment. Many get interested in learning how to play an instrument or the details that surround music for a combination of one of the above or an entirely different reason. J.J. Tulips, for this purpose, publishes her first book, Music for Beginners: A Guide to Music. J.J. Tulips is an award-winning pianist with years’ worth of experience backing up her advice. In her book, she talks about how the music that we know today was a lot different from how it sounded in ancient times. The music that the Greeks used to play was much more theoretical and notational. The first of those who laid the groundwork for acoustic music was none other than Pythagoras. He was a Greek philosopher who influenced many future philosophers and was the first musical numerologist. The Greeks made significant strides in the development of music, as they were the first ones to establish a relationship between string length, pitch, and notes. Music by different philosophers was considered a sub-branch of various subjects. Pythagoras considered it a branch of mathematics, while Plato considered it a field born of ethics. These different outlooks made it so it was examined with different lenses, hence making it easier to understand and study on a wider scale. J.J. Tulips’ Music for Beginners: A Guide to Music is a comprehensive music guide compiling all of her experience from her musical journey and travels around the world. Her book makes it easy for any reader interested in picking up music as a casual hobby or as a professional skill.

Music has always been a significant part of all our lives. From as early as the Stone Age, people have been aware of music, whether it came from nature or was man-made. It has been a source of joy and happiness. Award-winning pianist J.J. Tulips writes her first book, Music for Beginners: A Guide to Music, in order to help guide people newly interested in the musical arts as both a professional field and a casual hobby. Despite not knowing the definitive origin of music, most music scholars assume it was inspired by nature: the rustling of leaves, the singing of birds, the crackling of lightening, and the thudding of earth. These were all sounds that the human ears got attuned to before anything else, even if they didn’t understand the heavenly phenomena. Witnessing them gave birth to a new spark of inspiration. That spark inspired the first tunes that man made, in celebration of life and as an expression of what he felt. With time, the music evolved and was shaped into the present-day form that we listen to and compose. Music for Beginners: A Guide to Music is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to studying the history and origin of music. Mostly because J.J. Tulips didn’t want to overwhelm the music lovers beginning their journey into the vast world of notes and melodies. In the book, Tulips shares her abundance of knowledge that she gained during her travels around the world, learning about the folk tunes of different regions and how culture has influenced them over time. With J.J. Tulips’ expert advice for beginners, the learning road becomes much smoother as she simplifies all that we need to know about how to start learning about music in her book.
