Math is important in music primarily to help us understand the distance and relationship between different notes. Notes are usually related to a specific number of vibrations per second, called their frequency. The resulting jumps between different notes is more easily understood with a good knowledge of math. Some intervals or distances sound very pleasant while some sound harsh or disonant. Examples would be an octave jump vs. an interval of a fifth or third.
