The three types of music listening are: passively listening, responsively listening, and actively listening.

Passively listening is where someone is focused on doing something while the music is playing in the background, you are not really listening to the music and it is just part of your surroundings. Examples of this in real life are listening to music while you are doing your homework or having music playing while you are talking and eating dinner. This technique is the most basic out of the three listening types and is employed by almost everyone.

Responsively listening is when you are physically or mentally reacting to the music. This is when you may play music to make you feel a certain way (to pump you up or calm you down, or to make you feel happy) or you physically respond to the music such as dancing or moving parts of your body to the beat of the music. Another example is pacing your steps to the same beat that the music you are listening to is playing. Responsively listening allows you to gain the main health benefits of listening to music and react to music in a more advanced way than passively listening. This type of listening is also used by almost everyone whether it’s to use as a tempo or just to hype up to make you feel happy.

Actively listening is where you pay attention to the music, it is the focal point. Whereas in passively listening the music was just part of the background, when you actively listen you make everything else around you fade into the background as you set your main attention on the music. This is type of listening makes you pay attention to the little details of the music, past the lyrics. It makes you look at the beat, tempo, and melody of the song. This is a great skill to learn for musicians and instrument players. It allows you to look deeper into the music that you are listening to and be able to replicate it. Compared to the other skills this takes a lot of practice and skill to achieve. Not everyone can do it, but it is very helpful, especially if you want to or are a musician.

Overall, all of these listening skills are very important in their own way and all require a different skill level to achieve, but they are all useful and are integrated into our everyday lives, helping us to enjoy the world around us.

I really hope this helps!
