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?

It is argued that by some
people
listening to
music
is known as a good method of gathering different age groups and cultures of
people
, while others have different points of view. I personally agree with the former idea. On the one hand, some
people
think that listening to
music
is not a good idea for
this
aim. In different societies where there is a range of variety of age groups, each of them has a musical taste.
For example
, in some countries teenagers or younger
people
usually listen to energetic
music
while adults prefer to listen to lighter
music
like traditional or classical.
As a result
, these type of difference leads to avoiding bringing
people
together.
On the other hand
, there are some reasons why others and I believe that
music
can represent a
culture
of a society.
First
and foremost is that the
music
and its lyrics convey a message about the
culture
of that age.
For instance
, a Canadian individual who is interested in Persian
culture
can be familiar with it by listening to Iranian
music
, especially the traditional type because huge numbers of lyrics of
this
type of
music
have been gotten from one of the world-famous literature books that its name is called "Shahnameh" due to
this
book has rich content about the Iranian lifestyle, social conditions, relationships, love, and personalities of that time. To sum up, in my opinion, there are some reasons why
music
can bring
people
together who have different cultures. The reason
such
as representing
culture
in the lyrics of
music
is one of the prominent causes.
