Music depends on the properties of the sound waves that enter your ear

Frequency is one property that is pretty important because a high-frequency wave is one where there are a lot of vibrations per second and a low-frequency wave is where are a few vibrations per second in terms of the music a higher frequency is a high note and a lower frequency is perceived as a lower note

Amplitude is how tall the wave is, a higher amplitude is louder sound.

Wavelength if the wavelength is shorter the higher is the frequency and the higher the pitch.
