Close, but not quite.
Music is sound that has been controlled (that's agreed to be the closest you can get to a definition). That simple. Some people on the TFP have suggested that there are basic elements of music (i.e. timbre, rhythm, pitch) that must all be present and change during a piece to have music, with intentions to prove that rap or techno are not really music. Not completely true. In this sense, all of these elements are present wherever there is sound.
