         <description><![CDATA[<div>The whole semester is about the musical work, which takes me to explore the inner charming world of music. Also, the piece of song I researched is “Flos Campi” composed by Vaughan Williams. The meaning of “Flos Campi” is “the flower of the field”. But when I listen to the music for the first time, it makes me feel really depressed and sad because of its mixed tones and different instruments. Honestly I feel music is like a universal language and it is connected with listeners’ emotions and hearts. Also, different kind of music will influence listeners in different ways. Although my major is Finance, I’m still really interested about psychology. So I made a research to analyze whether music is a kind of universal language or not and how music connects with psychology.</div><div>  First, I asked my roommate to listen this piece of music without telling her anything. At the beginning, her face was full of smile. But as the music plays, I felt her mood changed up and down. Her smile disappeared from her face and when it came to the middle part, she seemed like a little confused. Then, when the music ended, I could feel she was a little depressed. After listening to the music, I asked how she thought about it. She said that she imagined a painful love story: Two people both loved each other deeply. But they didn’t have the fate to be together. When they got closer to each other, there were lots of arguments and conflicts. And they finally separated into different ways but still loving deeply. After her respond, I should admit I felt the same way when I first listened to that. But another my friend felt differently than us. He said that the music reminded him about a person’s whole life experience, which was always struggling but still walking forward. </div><div>  In my view, I agree with both statements and I believe even the same piece of music can also influence people’s emotions into different directions. The original intention of this piece is that Williams lives in a bad condition when he is getting old. And he is not satisfied with certain aspects of his life. So he wrote down this piece to express his feelings. </div><div>  In conclusion, music is like a kind of universal language and it is definitely connected with psychology. I feel it is an amazing thing, which is expressing your feelings from musical notes rather than from other mouths. Therefore, due to the special connection, I suggest maybe we can make some musical products as medicine for depression or anxiety disorders. I believe that will be a beneficial connection with business. </div><div>  </div>]]></description>
