I feeling, and how do I want my listeners to feel when they hear this song? Because what you're<br />

feeling will help determine what your listener will feel, and that carries a lot of weight.<br />

So in short, music has the power to culturally, morally, and emotionally influence our society. Thus,<br />

the more intentional we become with the sounds, messages, and moods we create and release<br />

through our music, the more powerful we will become in making deep positive impacts. We have the<br />

mandate and authority as artists and musicians to change the world around us because of the<br />

influence we carry, and that truly makes music something worth dedicating a life to.<br />

Kelley, Tasha. “Effects of Music on Children and Adolescents.”<br />

Using the resources provided and careful observation, it is clear that music is a powerful<br />

force in human society. Listening to certain music has been shown to improve mood,<br />

increase productivity, and even encourage intellectual growth, while music education can<br />

have an even greater effect. On the negative side, there are also correlations between<br />

promiscuous or violent music and destructive behavior; though some of these correlations<br />

can be attributed to a previously troubled youth, others are not so easy to dismiss. However<br />

wonderful or terrible it may be, music is a cornerstone of human culture; it is a learning<br />

tool, a method of communication, and, for some, a way of life. As such, it should be treated<br />

with respect.<br />
