Many ancient scientists studied the effects of music on animals, plants and people. Modern scientific and social researches prove the views of the ancient sages that music is a powerful source of energy which affects the person. Nowadays, a huge mass of aggressive information intrusively attacks the human brain and continues increasing its intensity. The methods of delivery and penetration of information flows don’t satisfy by the human consciousness. Increasingly the using of the latest development to impact on the subconscious mind begins and it influences on the be-havior and moral foundations of one's personality. To understand the possibility of "illegal" influence on the formation of personality for possible further manipula-tion, it is necessary to identify ways and methods of such impact. In this case, it is the impact by music. In our time, to research the possibilities of using of music in the influence on the subconsciousness and manipulation is very important in the context of social and political changes which are the integral part of our modern life. Some people have a great temptation to manipulate not only individuals but also crowds of people. Unfortunately, it is part of our modern reality.
