Music has multiple functions, including communicative, coordinative, concentrating, and emotional ones.The importance of the music being involved in teaching of foreign languages is presented in this paper from several possible points of view - the view of motivation, the view of the language reception and production, the view of the support of intensive perception and the emotional view. Language is regarded as the fundamental means of communication used for the exchange of information between people.
