The authors emphasize the importance of developing emotional intelligence through music education, which contributes to social adaptation, effective communication and mutual understanding. In addition, it is pointed out that music can act as a means to overcome cultural stereotypes, broaden the worldview and strengthen interpersonal relationships.
The article concludes that music is a powerful tool for social integration and cultural tolerance. It is able to unite people of different nationalities, faiths, and cultural traditions, breaking down barriers and contributing to the construction of an open, tolerant society.
