Well.... it's art and art "creates a mood" in the broad sense... right?

She doesn't like them, because she doesn't like the "mood" they leave her in. <echar...@american.edu> On Fri, Feb 26, 2021 at 1:40 AM jon zingale <jonzing...@gmail.com> wrote: > I spent the working day listening to Arvo Pärt > <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4e3xhWPhffc&ab_channel=VSPmusicali&t=0s> > and now I am experiencing a not unfamiliar experience.
