The Importance of the Arts
The arts are commonly grouped into four categories, those of dance, music, theater, and the visual arts. Dance is the human experience translated by physical movement. It can be anything from the classic form of ballet to ballroom. Music is sound, how pitches relate to one another—composed to convey the wordless of human expression. In the broadest sense, can be defined as including everything connected with dramatic art--the play itself, the stage with its scenery and lighting, makeup, costumes, acting, and actors. The visual arts include sculpture and painting. Each of the arts is a reflection of the culture that produced it as well as capable of transcending its own specific category to complement any of the other categories. For example, in the dance category—river dance is a type of dance that is a cultural reflection of an Irish tradition. And hip-hop is a type of dance that complements the similarly named musical genre. The arts as a form of expression is a form and a vehicle of communication, of outreach, indicative of the common plight of humanity to be part of community. Each story communicated by each of the arts combines to create a more complete, more complex, more fully and unconsciously honest picture
