Platon also believes that, music is an essential part of education because rhythm and harmony are especially appropriate to enter the soul and move it. On the other hand, according to Pitagoras, he affirms that music exerts a special power over spirit, who began to give it a curative and medicinal application. And as you can find infinite views on music, according to the historical moment and the intention of who raises it, but something if true, music is an art that for many years has fascinated the whole world for its unique qualities of sound and expression.
(Photograph taken of my daughter Paola on the day of her first Violin concert)Human beings are always in contact with music and this has been part of us for many years. Music is found everywhere and at all times. Moreover, today in today's society we live, in large cities full of cars, large infrastructures, we can find the music produced by modernity that we often define as noise.

Nowadays, society in general has changed its traditional and moral values, with more importance being money, success, competition, leisure, social status, beauty and individualism. This thanks to the means of communication and, especially television, which has markedly marked the social life.

Although for the impact on values, it would surely have more effect at early ages, where music could come to determine the idea of good and evil, honor, morality, among other things. But during adolescence it has become a symbol of the search for identity and autonomy. In these times listening to music and watching music videos are two of the most important activities carried out during adolescence. That is why music should be seen as a language, teaching, distraction, enjoyment and transforming expression that has been used by man for different activities over time. Because of this, music is a benefit for society, as long as it is used correctly to transmit positive values and teachings.
