Music has been and will continue to be the universal language of mankind. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

#music #language #mankind
It has been proved that
music
 is the eternal and unified tool for communication for human beings. I strongly agree with
this
 statement since
music
 can be interpreted and understood by
people
 universally.
First
 of all,
people
 perceive
music
 in a similar way regardless of their cultural backgrounds . The abilities to recognise tones and sounds and type of melody cut across all humans and whether you are listening to a love song, healing song or lullaby, it seems that a song’s psychological purpose can be easily identified.
People
 can be from different countries and still understand that Lumbuda is dance

Correct your spelling
music music
 and no matter if they understand Spanish or not.
This
 proves that melody is universal. The other point that
music
 can be considered as a common language is that it evokes a wide range of
people
's
emotions
. It is said that where words fail,
music
 speaks.
Music
 speaks with humans through their feelings and perceptions and does not need to be categorised or explained.
People
 communicate with other
people
 through
music
, which inspires them to feel similar
emotions
, love, grief or sadness and as a consequence to bridge the gap between cultures.
Therefore
,
music
 touches
people
’s
emotions
 in a way that spoken language cannot. In conclusion, being a part of human existence,
music
 inspires identical human
emotions
 and understanding of senses and genres around the world despite other differences between
people
 like languages and cultures.
This
 unique feature allows
music
 to be considered as a universal language that touches every person.
