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?

People have varying opinions about whether
music
can be used to make individuals from different cultures or ages unite. I completely agree that
music
can unify people. First of all,
music
can be regarded as a global language in human society. It can break through some barriers existing between different languages or country boundaries, making it preferred by
music
lovers from all over the world.
For example
, it is difficult to buy a ticket for Taylor Swift's concert as she is incredibly popular worldwide. Most countries or regions are so pleased to invite her to hold a concert, increasing the domestic income.
In addition
, Jay Chou, a Chinese singer, produced a song named "Nunchakus,"  which has become a smash hit in the

world.
As a result
of that, an increasing number of
westerners

are interested in Chinese culture. 
Secondly
,
music
has its own special glamour to attract people from all different age groups.
For instance
, in China, there is a
music
TV programme called "The Voice of

This

together to have conversations, facilitating their emotional expressions and enhancing their relationships.
Furthermore
, good
music
can be passed from one generation to the
next,
such
as Boundless Oceans, a song from a band named Beyond.
This
song has existed for several decades;
however
, it is still preferred by most Chinese youngsters.  In conclusion, my view is that
music
could unify

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
