Harmony of Language and Technology: AI-Supported Music Education through Song Lyrics

This study explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in music education as an innovative approach to enhance language learning through song lyrics. Music is widely recognised as a powerful pedagogical tool, with its lyrics offering meaningful context for vocabulary building, grammar practice, and expressive communication. By combining AI with music education, the study aims to create engaging and multidisciplinary learning experiences that foster both linguistic growth and artistic expression. The approach emphasises lyric writing, songwriting, and guided singing to improve students’ vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and vocal skills. Learners compose original works with the help of AI tools while practising accurate English vowels, clear pronunciation, and appropriate vocal techniques. The methodology involves AI-assisted music generation, lyric composition, guided vocal practice, and peer presentations, encouraging collaboration, creativity, and reflective learning. Findings show that students achieve notable improvements in language proficiency, confidence, and creative expression. Importantly, the accessibility of AI allows participation from all learners, regardless of prior musical training, making songwriting and performance both inclusive and enjoyable. The novelty of this study lies in its cross-disciplinary framework that unites music education, language acquisition, vocal training, and AI technology. Results highlight how AI-supported lyric composition and guided singing enhance linguistic skills while nurturing creativity, critical thinking, and student engagement. This approach demonstrates the transformative potential of AI in education, offering new pathways where music, language, and technology converge to enrich teaching and learning.
