Some musical tones can open a new window in front of us. Different music is created in different places of the world. These have different perspectives and motives. The lyrics and thoughts are also not similar. Rather different cultures and nations use their own musical instruments and rhythm to play their music. So when we listen to the music of different cultures it helps us to understand their emotional attachments.  Music can help us to explore new views and thoughts. It can help us to be a part of the global village.

When we listen to the radio, attending a concert, or singing in the shower, music can fill us with emotion from joy to sadness. Music always has a power that can affect deep emotional centers in our brain. A single sound tone may not be pleasurable in itself. But if we can organize those sounds in some sort of arrangement, it could be amazingly powerful.
