Well lively music makes me want to do things quickly, classical (adagio) music makes me relaxed and romantic music makes me feel very sensual.

Yeah i agree, it certainly has the ability to bring out certain emotions in people and therefore bring out certain behaviour patterns.

I suppose what is interesting is how different music cultures get different human responses. Music in the west may create one mood/emotion whereas the same music might make people respond completely different in the non-western world. A very interesting thing to examine....

Most people who study classical music will have much gentle personalities, not rough and don't have a hobby of bullying or hurting other people.

I think you may have a point in there somewhere about people being quite calm when they listen to classical, i dont think though that this refelcts their personalities in general.

What is also interesting is how classical music is sometimes used for more sinister means. Ive seen several films where classical music is used at the tense moments of the film to increase the dramatic parts/characters. Again, this is all really interesting how music which is so often interpreted one way can be just as effective when used in a different light.

'Fraid that's just not true. There are many bullies in the world of classical music. Teachers who scream and shout at their pupils, humiliate them - sorry but it's true.

In the world of jazz however, you'll find find the warmest, kindest, funniest...
