Hello all. I would like to get your opinion on the question: Is Music a Universal Language? Here is some quick background info: I am an econ major at school and taking a music class for GE Credit. This question was a true/false question on one of my exams for school, but it almost seems to me like a trick question. I am going to make the case to my professor that music is a universal language, he is trying to say that music is NOT a universal language. It may very well not be, but I believe this question is just so vague/badly worded that I think I can make a good case. Do you think Music is a Universal Language? How do you define "universal" and "language"?
