Abstract:

Music is an integral part of life, a major mark in representing the culture and tradition of a society. Tourism, being a globalized process bringing out different people together, takes hold of music too in its inter-disciplinary journey, through Music Tourism. Connecting people around the world through the music festivals, help in the sustainable development of the process of globalization. Music therapy, a major way of treatment, dated back to ancient Gods to the modernity, can also be considered as a major part of the cultural tourism. This study focuses on music, rather than being a mere art form, shares its part with tourism promoting equally in the entertainment arena, economic sphere and in the health-induced fields.
