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 often said that

music

is the best way to promote cohesion among

people

of diverse

cultures

and age groups. In my opinion, I totally agree with

this

point of view.

To begin

with, the reason why

music

can expel the barriers between different nations and

cultures

is because it is a source of cultural understanding. Through lyrics and melodies,

music

promotes communication, broadens our outlook on the world’s peoples, and helps us understand the world’s

cultures

and their diversities.

Above all

, it is a way of breaking down prejudices which isolate

people

from one another, affording opportunities for intercultural understanding. There are some songs that represent the ideas mentioned above,

such

as We Are All Alike written by Hap Palmer, and Under One Sky by Ruth Pelham, to name just a few.

In addition

,

music

can bond

people

of different ages. It can be explained by the fact that

music

does not need interpretation to be enjoyed and understood as it touches our hearts and resonates in our minds. No matter what language we speak or understand, we appreciate the melody and depth of

music

which is why

people

of all ages can sit together and enjoy the same

music

.

For example

, singing with toddlers creates a sort of communication between parents and children that helps build the foundation for effective interaction later in life. In conclusion, not only can

music

foster inclusion among

cultures

by delivering messages through its melody, but

also

build a strong connection between adults and young children.
