MUSIC AS LITERATURE

I think we can definitely consider music as literature because basically music creates a image for the listener. While literature creates a vivid image to the reader. Its the same thing. Music is like poetry when you think about it because music can be descriptive. The difference between a novel and a song is that a novel has more descriptive details. While a song is a short poem or passage that has a chorus. A novel describes a character that goes through obstacles or the novel has some type of action. While some songs don't require words and the song could be just instrumental only. A song speaks to the listener in a way and creates a message. A novel has the same concept except you are reading the words and the novel provides a lesson to learn from. Words are powerful and I think music and literature are the same thing.
