Nietzsche believed that the art that best embodies the Dionysian spirit is the art of music.

Music art is an art form that uses auditory images composed of organized sounds to express people's thoughts, feelings and social real life. Any art form has its own means of expressing expressions and shaping artistic images.

For example, dance embodies artistic images through body movements and facial expressions, painting embodies lines, colors, and compositions, and literature embodies artistic images through words, words, sentences, and articles. Usually, people distinguish different types of art based on different means of expression.

Music is an art form that uses sound as its means of expression. The shaping of musical images is completed using organized sounds as materials. Therefore, just as literature is the art of language, music is the art of sound. This is one of the basic characteristics of musical art. Sound, as a means of expression of musical art, has some characteristics that are different from other sounds in nature.

The sounds produced in any musical work are carefully thought out and created by the composer, and these sounds absolutely do not exist in nature. Therefore, the sound of music is unnatural and is created through people's creative artistic activities. Whether it is a simple song or a large-scale symphony, it is permeated with the author's creative thinking.

Randomly painted lines and colors are not paintings, arbitrarily piled up language and words are not literature, and similarly, messy sounds are not music. The sounds that constitute musical images are organized, regular and harmonious music, including melody, rhythm, mode, harmony, polyphony, musical form and other elements, collectively referred to as musical language.

Without the creative element, no sound can become music. Language has a conventional semantics, and every sentence or even every word has a specific meaning.

This meaning is recognized within the social scope where the language is used and is a convention; the sound of music is completely different. It is only limited to the scope of art and only serves as an artistic exchange. And exist. The sounds in any music themselves will never have a very definite meaning like language, they are non-semantic.
