There is a famous saying by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, widely known and best-loved American poet of the 19th century. The quote rings true today: “Music is the universal language of mankind.” This quote embodies the idea that music creates a common resemblance between individuals regardless of their location around the world. It’s true that different cultures have their own distinct taste in music but underlying these differences is a common appreciation for music itself. This appreciation has led other cultures to partake in events such as music festivals that bring cultural differences into the consciousness of music fans.
