Why does music written in a minor key sound "sad" or "downbeat," while music in a major key sounds "happy" or "upbeat"?

​

Answer 1

Answer:

Music being downbeat or upbeat is technically a rhythmic phenomenon, and is largely unrelated to the tonality of the music. Most modern popular music is downbeat, regardless of whether it is happy or sad.

Some people say that our association of the minor scale with sadness and of the major scale with happiness is exclusively due to conditioning. That's possible. Doesn't feel quite right, though.

Why does music written in a minor key sound "sad" or "downbeat," while music in a major key sounds "happy" or "upbeat"?

$answer$

The minor key is opposed to the major key and it's perceived by us (without being aware) as if there was something wrong, hence sadness or restlessness. Further explanation: When you hear a note, what you're really hearing are vibrations.
