Music is really a part of our lives. It is usually referred as the sound of angels but nowadays there is a debate between the importance of traditional music and the international music. Which is more important between them?

International music is what is popular now. It changes in every generation and every day there is something new with it but sometimes, the change is not good for everyone’s ears especially the children who are most sensitive in the language used by the international music artists. It does not relate with the audience because it does not talks about their feelings, it is just a one’s point-of-view. And, sometimes it does not have sense; yes, it has a very good rhythm but how about its lyrics.

However, traditional music is already a part of culture of a nation. It says the people’s history, for example, the national anthem of the Philippines. It talks about the history, it is a history written in a song. In addition, it protects the sensitivity of children; in fact, it can help them learn their own culture and language. The audience can relate to the song not only with its rhythm but also with its lyrics because they know something about it and they are learning from it. Moreover, traditional music is written with a consideration to other’s point-of-view which signifies that it is written for all.

In a nutshell, music is very broad and it changes as time goes by. It has different varieties but when it comes to their importance, of course, the music which made a milestone in people’s lives is really the most important.
