Some
people
say that music
is a good way to bring people
of different cultures and ages together. I do agree with this
statement, in my point of view, music
could bring people
of different cultures together but cannot bring various age groups together.
First
of all, it is true that there is no boundary between music
, every person from different cultural backgrounds could be touched by the same type or even just a clip of music
. Music
is the widest implied language and it is also
the oldest language of our humans which means that we could contact each other through music
. At the same time, the diversity of music
is a significant symbol of cultural diversity as well. By communicating with music
, we could understand the root of a nation and its intrinsic spirit and even international organisations. For instance
, every time the Olympics Games be held, there will have the
main theme for it. One of the most famous ones is "Hand in Hand" which expressed the spirit of antiwar and a hope to bring all humans together.
Correct article usage

On the other hand
, it is difficult to bring different age groups through music
. The reason is there are gaps between age groups. Every generation has its own memories, and they cannot be experienced only by music
. Besides
, different tastes in music
are also
a hurdle to bring people
of different ages together. For instance
, many elderly people
cannot accept rap as they think it is over noisy while many youngsters cannot accept their old-fashioned taste as well.
In conclusion, I admit and agree that music
could bring people
of various cultures together but kind of hard to bring different ages together.Submitted by Meow on
