Abstract
Music is not merely a reflection of history—it is a force that has shaped it. This paper explores the symbiotic relationship between music and historical events, illustrating how melodies, rhythms, and lyrics have influenced societies, driven political movements, and preserved cultural identities. Music has acted as a catalyst for social change, fueling revolutions, advocating for justice, and even altering the course of global diplomacy. Genre hybridization and technological advancements have further expanded music’s impact, allowing for cross-cultural fusion and worldwide accessibility. By analyzing key moments in history where music played a pivotal role—whether through protest anthems, nationalistic compositions, or groundbreaking innovations—this study highlights music's enduring power as both a historical artifact and an agent of transformation.
