Hi Kenjee,
In my opinion, I think there is no language in music. Anyway, I agree that music is one kind of media that represents the culture and history of a country (both in traditional and contemporary sense). If you listen to the traditional or folk songs, you might be able to have a glance at the history of several centuries ago and if you listen to the contemporary music, you will have a chance to know the current trend.

Traditional music band (or) Saing waing playing can be listened in this link:
Generally, there are lots of concerts throughout the year. Government holds the Traditional music festival and competition once a year if I am not wrong.
All the best.
