How could someone possibly define music? Music is something
more than an art or an educational subject. It is the core of our existence since the beginning of people’s appearance on earth. Not a simple individual could remain untouched when listening to a piece of music of their preference. Music is connected with our brains. Everybody reacts in listening to it because it creates intense and profound emotions, fills us with inspiration and makes us become both passionate and compassionate. After all, Shakespeare compared it in as the food of love. The importance of music is by no means less significant to any other educational task, such as reading and writing. However, although it is accepted that music is equally educational to any other forms of learning, there are those who support that only classical music should be exclusively taught in school. In my opinion, the different kinds of music which appeal to each one is totally a personal matter and should not be judged negatively. On the contrary the fact that they stimulate an individual’s potential is what really counts. To sum up, nobody can claim to be an expert at the personal tastes of the other people. Since listening to music offers a fulfilment and an inner satisfaction and fills people with love and other kind of feelings only respect could be shown for every kind of this gift. I strongly believe that if we want to be better people, we should listen to music as much as possible.
