1. How does music influence and impact the world that we live in?
Music influences and impacts the world we live in because for some people music is everything to them and for others it’s a way of expressing their inner true feelings. Music is what drives the soul into new horizons. It’s what brings joy into the dull existence of everyday human life. Music is truly one of the only ways that people can escape their everyday life.
2. How is music used in different parts of the world and in different areas of life (movies, religion, etc.)?
Music is used in different parts of the world and in different areas of life through movies, religion, TV shows, and other aspects of everyday life. People tend to use music to express emotions or to lighten the mood of the atmosphere. Music is also used to make things seem more dramatic, sad, or happy, which is usually seen in movies. People use music in religion to further express their religion and their religious beliefs.
