The Music of Nature

We often think of music as an art form crafted by humans—but what if it is something more fundamental? This series explores the idea that music is not merely created but discovered. Across history, we have used music to mirror nature—echoing the rhythms of storms and seas, the calls of birds, and the silent motions of the planets. But how does the natural world—our bodies, minds, and language—shape the music we make? Do animals make music? Do we all hear music the same way? What happens to music in our dreams? Can we transform the hidden patterns of nature—DNA sequences, the spread of a virus, even the frequencies of light and colour—into sound? Is there a secret music to the universe itself? This series uncovers deep connections between sound and nature, revealing music as a bridge between the physical and the perceptual, the scientific and the poetic.
