Referring to the concept and theory put forward by the media and communication theorist Marshall McLuhan (1964) as the Global Village, it is clear that in today’s age of technology, the world expresses its cultural identities in a transformational way through people and societies. In this sense, the socio-cultural structures, social belongings, values and artistic practices of societies as cultural assets can be independent of each other. In this context, music is one of the most substantial phenomena as a primarily verbal and auditory art with a reflective function. With the multicultural structures of different societies, the role of music as a tool is clearly manifested as a diversity in musical genres. Music is not just a field of performance, but a field related to sub-disciplines such as education, philosophy and psychology, and therefore the interpretation of the results through these outputs will undoubtedly provide different perspectives.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMusicPresentationDossierArticle7331410.46652/rgn.v7i33.981
