Music is a subject included in most if not every school curriculum. Romans used music for communication, healing, enjoyment and relaxation. Musical rhythm and pitch can be heard everywhere since eons ago.

It invites the feeling of relaxation, relief from stress and also acts as therapy, improving mental and physical health when connection was made between music, soul and body.
