Albeit, Persian, Indian, Arabian, African, etc. has equal influence on modern music as Classical which is usually a blanket term for something developed by Russian, or European means.

Western style popular music (and by extension perhaps classical too) has had the biggest influence around the world I would say. Not that that means there hasn't been some very good music from elsewhere in other styles just that it hasn't had the political / economic power behind it that maybe western music has had.
