You might find that some of our magisterial reformers were of a different opinion.I would stress that we are fed by God's word first. Music is a nice bonus but it is faithful, solid expositional preaching that matters first. Not to mention, this is where the real growth is going to come from.
Hear Calvin:
"If it be inquired, then, by what things chiefly the Christian religion has a standing existence among us, and maintains its truth, it will be found that the following two not only occupy the principal place, but comprehend under them all the other parts, and consequently the whole substance of Christianity: that is, a knowledge, first, of the mode in which God is duly worshipped; and, secondly, of the source from which salvation is to be obtained." (The Necessity of Reforming the Church)
Note that for Calvin the manner in which God is to be worshipped takes first place. He spends the first considerable portion of that treatise discussing worship.
