Instrumental

Instrumental music, which has been charming ears since the dawn of time (or at least since the invention of the flute), features melodies sans lyrics, allowing the listener to ponder life's big questions instead of trying to decipher the latest teen angst. It covers everything from classical orchestras to jazzy improvisations, and can evoke emotions from deep sadness to a cheeky tap dance in the living room—depending, of course, on the type of tea consumed whilst listening. The genre's allure lies in its ability to communicate without words, making it a favourite for film scores and those awkward moments when you just want some music at a dinner party without inciting an existential crisis among guests.
