I think that a instrument is the most important medium.
The term "medium" can mean different things in this context. In the world of physics, the medium of music is the physical nature of the transmission path between the source of the music and the listener. In most cases, that is air. Some feel music through various structures (the floor, for example), so the medium in that case would be wood, concrete, steel, or other structural material. When music is heard underwater, the medium is water.
In the world of communication media, music is one of many media used. Music is a series of more or less harmonious sounds arranged in a more or less rhythmic way. Such an arrangement of sounds can communicate emotion directly in a way that print media or visual media cannot.
