What is music?

A friend of mine (talented musician-type) asked me to write an article/column where the topic was "What is music?" When I asked him to elaborate, he told me a story where he asked this question on a music-related message board and got a ton of varied answers. I'm guessing he's just asking me what my answer is. I'm not going to be lame and use the dictionary definition to start, but I'm not looking to be too abstract or pseudointellectual about it either because that's pointless.

...well shit. I just took a good ten minutes trying to figure out how to articulate an answer and I got nothing.
