Some people say that music is a good way of bringing people of different cultures and ages together. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Certain individuals opine that

music

is a better

way

of harmonising

people

of different generations and traditions. Personally, I agree because it accords

people

a chance to communicate with one another and sympathise with the

challenges

that

others

face

.

First

and foremost, the rhythm of songs can be understood by anyone regardless of nationality and

age

thus

bringing about a formal

way

of communication.

In other words

,

music

is the only universal language and a

way

of communication that the masses can understand because it involves emotions. Since everyone has feelings,

music

is able to stimulate them for the better and enable all listeners of various

age

groups and cultural settings to be of one accord both emotionally and physically. Take,

for example

, love songs that are produced the world over, because they heighten feelings of

people

from all walks of life, they bring

people

together.

This

in itself shows how

music

brings about

people

of different ages and

cultures

.

Secondly

, due to its diversity,

music

brings

people

together. To put

this

in perspective, the differences in many

cultures

makes it possible for

people

to learn about other

cultures

as well as the

challenges

they

face

. The same goes for the various

age

groups where, because many

people

sing about their various problems affecting them, it helps other

people

of a different

age

to understand them and even sympathise with them.

For example

, the songs that originate from Africa speak of the

challenges

Africans of different ages

face

and how they opt to resolve them.

This

helps listeners from other

cultures

to fully grasp their

challenges

and even draw them closer to

such

people

. All in all,

music

enables

others

to understand the

challenges

of different

cultures

and ages and

this

results in unity as

others

become aware of the problems of mankind in general. By

way

of conclusion, I reaffirm my position that

music

brings about harmony among

people

of various

age

groups and

cultures

because it is a formal

way

of communicating and a

way

of expressing the

challenges

that

others

face

.

Therefore

, because

people

communicate and sympathise with each other, it stimulates their emotions and brings them closer.
