The Connections Between Music and Reading
(by Elizabeth Peterson)
Music and reading share many similarities. When reviewing a reading curriculum, the author noticed
that most ideas about reading could also apply to music. In her book Inspired by Listening, she explores
how music can help build community and support writing in the classroom.
Listening to music, like reading, includes three stages: before, during, and after. Before listening, it
helps to know the background of the composer, genre, or instruments used. While listening, students
should focus and become familiar with the piece. After listening, they reflect and make judgments, just like
when analyzing a story.
Learning about a piece of music also builds vocabulary. For example, students can describe sounds,
instruments, or musical styles. Listening to a piece repeatedly allows students to recognize patterns,
anticipate favorite parts, and discover new details—similar to rereading a book they enjoy.
After experiencing music, students can express their thoughts through writing, drawing, or speaking.
Teachers can guide students to make connections between music and reading by pointing out how both
activities involve interpretation, memory, and emotional response.
When students realize how they listen to music—thinking about performers, enjoying familiar
melodies, and reflecting on the experience—they become more aware of how they read. Music can
become a useful tool for helping students better understand reading skills and processes.

The Influence of Music on Society
Music has long been a vital part of human culture. It functions as a universal language, connecting
people across countries and generations. More than just entertainment, music has the power to influence
emotions, shape social behavior, and reflect cultural identity.
[I] Throughout history, communities have used music to express their beliefs, values, and struggles. [II]
In modern times, music genres like hip – hop, rock, or jazz have become tools for expressing political
messages and social movements, especially those related to civil rights or freedom. [III]
In addition, music helps create a sense of belonging. Public events such as concerts and festivals
bring people together, regardless of background or nationality. A well – known example is Live Aid, where
artists worldwide united to raise awareness and support for humanitarian causes. These events show how
music can build community and inspire action. [IV]
Music also plays a key role in emotional and social rituals. It is present in weddings, funerals, and
religious ceremonies, where it strengthens emotional expression and creates a deeper sense of meaning.
Today, music is also used in therapy to support people with mental health conditions such as depression,
anxiety, or trauma.
However, not all effects of music are positive. Some music, especially certain forms of rap or rock, has
been criticized for encouraging violence or promoting harmful stereotypes. While artistic freedom is
important, people must also consider the impact of lyrics and messages on listeners and society.
