Is music beneficial?

Does music truly benefit our lives? Whilst it allows for an entire industry to exist, would we be better off without it?

Yes, it is

I think music is good because sometimes people want to dance to the music or they just like the beat or the tune of the music. I like instrumental music and some of them are really good.

Side: Yes, it is

Music is not just about industry, it's about inspiration. How many musicians are inspired by others to become a musician? How many people enjoy music? The numbers are very large. Music even inspires us to do things we would never do normally. Whether it's entering a talent show or protesting against war, music is one of the most powerful tools we possess.

And after having multiple eargasms over Freddie Mercury's 4 octave vocal range, I think it is safe to say we'd be lost without it.

I believe music is beneficial to some people, it's stupid to say all people will benefit from listening to music but to answer the question of "Is music beneficial?" I would yes because it can help people relax and help them think clearly. Music is a powerful tool and should not be underestimated.

Yes it is. Music helps you to express yourself. It helps define you as a individual. Every person has a favorite genre of music. This is one way it helps to express them. Some people listen to certain songs to help cheer them up.

IT IS VERY BENEFICIAL... ONLY IF YOU LISTEN TO THE RIGHT PEOPLE. THOSE PROFANE SONGS WONT TAKE YOU ANYWHERE. INSPIRATIONAL PEOPLE THAT TALK ABOUT ISSUES HAPPENING AROUND US ARE ALWAYS THE BEST.

Yes, to some people it helps them concentrate or rejuvenates them. And in wars music can be used for intimidation or even a weapon if you fine tune the frequency just right.

Side: Yes, it is

Of course. Even positively influence music to children with their academic achievement. According to the article "The Effects of Music on the Mind" by Kristian D. the music as a separate and thorough curriculum can have dramatic positive changes in the learning process of young people. Jane M., the Director of the Office of Arts and Cultural Education of the Division of Instruction and Professional Development of New York City Public Schools says: "A well taught sequential music curriculum not only results in music learning that has inherent value; it also gives students the chance to listen, react, see, touch, and move. Instruction in music skills, appreciation, and theory also provides a wealth of learning strategies that enhance children's analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating skills. Students learn to process information and transfer knowledge through these concrete, kinetic, and cognitive experiences.Jane M. is an advocate for a program called Learning To Read Through The Arts , which makes music and the arts a separate course in the elementary curriculum instead of using it as an aid to different parts of the curriculum here and there. Music is taught through listening to different types of music while talking about the music, trying to understand it and interpret it in different ways and in many ways, imitate it. She further explains:These integrated music experiences provide excitement in learning for children and thereby improve students' reading, writing, thinking, and analyzing skills and strategies. Learning through all the senses expands the learning process to accommodate different learning styles. Opportunities for integrating communication arts, literature, science, social studies, and the arts are limited only by the educator's imagination, creativity, and open-mindedness.
