¿Cuál es tu hobby*?
Why do we use "cuál es" and not "qué es" in this kind of question? Because "cuál es" asks about some possible options to choose from, such as drawing, swimming, etc. If you would ask "qué es", this would ask about a definition, an explanation. Ex:
Carlos: ¿Cuál es tu pasatiempo?
Ana: Ver películas los fines de semana. ¿Y cuál es el tuyo?
Carlos: Mi pasatiempo es la hidroponía
Ana: Disculpa, ¿Qué pasatiempo es ese?
Carlos: La hidroponia es una forma de cultivar plantas en una solución de agua con nutrientes sin usar tierra.
Ana: Oh, no lo sabía ¡Gracias!
*hobby can be said like "pasatiempo" in Spanish
Now, ¿Qué música te gusta escuchar? is totally fine and is like a short version of ¿Qué tipo de música te gusta escuchar?, so again "qué" asks about definition or explanation, in this case, asks about the kind or genre of music. We can use both "cuál " or "qué" here but with some changes. Like this:
¿Qué tipo de música te gusta escuchar?
¿Cuál es el tipo de música que te gusta escuchar?

@jimin001107 ¡De nada! (You are welcome!)
By the way, the correct form is: "Muchas gracias".
