總結:This article examines the connection between religious and musical experiences and the shared elements that have contributed to their potent emotional impact. Both music and religion have improved the lives of various cultures around the world for decades because of their capacity to foster emotions of joy, clarity and escape from daily life. Several viewpoints are discussed in relation to this link, through the topic of music composed for religious ceremonies and prayers. These pieces, which are intended to bring listeners closer to their higher selves, may be beneficial for both individuals and groups in a range of favourable and unfavourable circumstances and serve as a suitable counterbalance to the solace that comes from religion. This study aims to shed more light on the similarities between music and religion and what it is about them that appeals to people.
