Book excerpt: Power and life are dynamic in nature, they can take forms that are oddity in our sight if viewed with uncommon perspective and rapt attention. Such is the case of music which has become our generic wonder, likened to the sun whose radiance has been scorching and finding inevitable expression in our daily existence, connoting power penetration through the windows and curtains of our homes calling on us to come and behold the extent of its magnificence. It is commonality of archaic and modern existence that music and power work hand-in-hand. In fact, music creates an atmosphere of power and meaning, enabling places to wear unfamiliar appearances. The germane enquiry is: how does music create an atmosphere of power and meaning, causing interrelations? It does when we acknowledge the fact that music, power and some of the factors associated with them can lead to the creation of wonderful experiences and they are one of the subjects of power dynamism the world is yet to take a wide glance at, be wowed by the discoverable factors one can gain and the prestige they can confer on mankind. The unravelling of these dynamic factors that will be thoroughly explicated has never been combined before, let alone have the opportunity of being encapsulated in a compendium like this. This book is about merging minute concept of power and little concept of music to expose depths that control and affect mankind generally but in musical parlance, which is designed to help man navigate his path towards power derivation. This exposition portrays the fact that music is powerful and power to a large extent has become the rhythm (music in form of instructions/machinery of control) people have been dancing (adhered) to before now and hitherto. The inquisitiveness about little knowledge of music being one of the peculiarities of power dynamism that exist in the world is evident in this volume 1 exhibition!
