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?

Music
is diversifying in
this
contemporary era. It is believed by a number of individuals that melody is an effective means of uniting the populace from different cultural backgrounds and generations.
Nonetheless
, I, completely agree with
this
point of view because
songs
have the power to influence one’s feelings and bring about global
language
.
To begin
with,
music
has the ability to evoke a wide range of emotions in the listeners
such
as sadness, anger and happiness regardless of their country of origin.
Although
songs
may be incomprehensible due to the
language
barrier, their melody is linguistically neutral.
This
implies that one does not need to understand the
language
used before the listeners enjoy the song. In Nigeria
for instance
, most citizens love Chinese pop
songs
whereas others may shed tears on a melancholic piece of
music
written by a Korean Artist.
Therefore
,
music
has a universal
language
that transcends all cultural boundaries.
Furthermore
,
music
is a common ground for people to understand each other irrespective of age. In recent times, youngsters have access to
songs
released decades ago and find them interesting like rage, rap and disco, while the older generation tends to fancy modern
music
such
as hip-hop and TikTok.
For example
, in 2019 when a popular actor Olu Jacob celebrated his 90th birthday, it was graced by both old and young and
songs
from divergent generations were played by the disc jockey to entertain the audience. Evidently, age has no constraints on musical enjoyment. In conclusion,
music
has a great influence on bonding individuals around the globe. I, totally agree with
this
opinion because an individual's genre, as well as culture, has no restrictions on their emotions and perception towards any type of opera.
