“Music in the soul can be heard by the Universe.” – Lao Tzu
Listening to music can provide opportunities for an individual through their own musical experiences. Music can address how people interact with their environment and examine how they affect their environment. Music can encourage social interaction among people. The interaction may take the form of talking about thoughts and feelings, contributing to group experiences, cooperating with others or responding to others’ needs. Interpersonal interaction can take place through music listening.
