Music is made of notes. A note consists of frequency, or pitch, and length of the sound. We enjoy music like we like certain favorite food or sex, or on the downside gambling or drugs, because it releases dopamine in the brain. The pleasure it gives is biologically reinforcing to us- potentially addictive. So we see God gave us beautiful music for our pleasure, and we sing to him in worship for His great pleasure.
We are blessed to have all kinds of music to worship our God with. For all the type of people we are we have various types of music to love God. We have everything from the great classical masters, to blue grass, to the blues; from country to gospel to rap. We have rock worship songs and of course hymns. Thanks be to God who gives us worship songs even for heavy metal heads! In sincerity of praise and love for Him, I’m sure He loves it all.

I wish you had taken this a step further. Perhaps have a character who is addicted to drugs but maybe finds her way home again because someone hears her singing this amazing high note and then once she realizes what she can do with her voice to help others come to Christ she realizes that being in his present is way better than any high.
That's just a suggestion to show how you can take an idea and step outside the box a bit. It may not be exactly what you would be looking for, but hopefully gives you an idea of what I mean. Your essay, though short has definitely made people stop and think and when that happens the Holy Spirit can work many things into the gap. Keep writing!
