Enjoying audio.
文化背景
In Russia, 'listening to music' is often a social activity. In the 90s and 2000s, it was common to see groups of friends sitting on benches with a boombox or a phone, sharing the latest tracks. During the Soviet era, listening to 'Western' music (like jazz or rock) was sometimes seen as a political statement. People would listen to 'records on ribs' (X-ray films used as vinyl). The social network VKontakte (VK) is the primary hub for music in Russia. 'Слушать музыку в ВК' is a phrase almost every Russian speaker knows. Russia takes great pride in its classical composers. 'Слушать Чайковского' (listening to Tchaikovsky) is considered a mark of a 'cultured' person (интеллигентный человек).
The 'U' Rule
Remember that for A1, 'музыка' almost always becomes 'музыку' because you are usually doing something TO it (listening, playing, loving).
No 'To'!
English speakers always want to say 'слушать к музыке'. Resist the urge! No preposition is needed.
