Abstract
Music has always had its generative role in building societies as one of the modern cultural basis. Arab Muslims had their own share of the music industry as Al Farabi divided melodies into delightful, imaginary & emotional; as Ibn Khadoon assured that civilizations fall as the music falls eventually, some declared that music can transfer a still painting to a musical, motionable or aesthetic view of expression. As music's role is increasing in fields, especially architecture, thus, the main problem comes about musical and architectural relationship, revealing the special case of composting architectural texture musically, & the research problem exposed a lack of knowledge about it & affection for music in architecture with outputs by subjecting architecture to music to promote outputs of design. This research aims to clarify that relationship & apply it to international buildings as the research concluded that sensual & moral indications could motivate a designer's imagination to design his outlines, aiming architectural use of music to produce intellectual joy ( objective ) reaching visible joy ( subjective ) by comprehending an indicated concept based on previous experiments, as conclusions included that slow rhythm music leads to the curved line and organic shapes & to straight lines & angles when listening to fast rhythm music.
