Music as a Universal Language
I am not a musician. I couldn’t carry a tune in a big old bucket, yet I still
sing along with my favorite song. I shudder at the thought of life without
music. Music is a very important part of my world and without it I don’t know
how I would have come as far as I have. Music is variety.

type of music on the market, the variety makes music universal.
Music is the voice we long for when we can’t find words to speak. Many people
will agree that there are songs that were written just for them. 2 They can express our emotions though we didn’t
