Folk music is said to consist of melodies composed by ordinary men and women. Traditionally, a folk song is about the lives of common people and follows specific rhymes. There is evidence that for centuries, ordinary people have been singing melodies and playing instruments, but since many could not write anything down, the origins of many early folk melodies remain uncertain.

The majority of early folk songs are about significant events in the daily lives of ordinary people. These events include birth, love, weddings, deaths, and farming or harvesting.

Many of us have experienced such emotions. When all hope seems lost, there is something that can change or even completely transform our state of mind: music.
