Hello, everyone! Today I would like to make a presentation on why people listen to music. It is known to us that the vast majority of people listen to music in the reality. So you can have a fair knowledge that this presentation aims to inform why people listen to music. Just ask yourself “Why do you listen to music”?

Generally speaking, this presentation will primarily illustrate three detailed benefits of listening to music. The first one is that music makes people happier. And the second one is that music improves one’s health and it lowers stress. The third one is that music plays a key role in motivating creativity. I will elaborate on these three benefits of listening to music to you one by one.

To begin with, when it comes to music’s advantage in making one happier, what is a must to mention is that the psychology of music shows that music affects one’s mood. In the meantime, music heals the soul. The more detailed condition is that three psychological elements of music listening can be listed as to realize self-awareness, to regulate arousal and mood, to express social relatedness. Apart from that, how the mood will be influenced by music can be explained through the involvement of cognitive development, music affects our taste perception, music aids productivity, music increases hope, sad music lets us feel good, music produces flow feelings, etc.

And as for the second benefit of listening to music, music improves one’s health and it lowers stress. On the one hand, music makes you exercise more, which is why all gyms always play music and all of them play a similar kind of music. On the other hand, music enables you to do sports for a longer period of time because you can be calmer while listening to music.

As to music’s role in motivating creativity, it is obvious that music allows people to keep in touch with new ideas and new things, contributing to fresh ideas in one’s brain. Classical and gentle music appears to be the most beneficial when considering the motivation of creativity. In the opposite, heavy metal music tends to benefit the music listeners in a different way.

That is all about my presentation and I hope that you can all learn something from within. Thanks for your time and attention.
