39、 about music is like dancing about architecture. But why dont we dance to paintings or for that matter, buildings anyway? The latest research hints at why. According to a study,(16)music and dance share a parallel expression of emotion. It suggests that the two disciplines can express a mood togethe

40、r, with complementary methods of generating the dynamics of feeling.
