This will work for the first handful of times! But, like using your favorite song as an alarm for an early class or a stressful job, it creates a large problem for the user and their music taste:

The user's favorite piece of calming music will now be consistently connected as an alarm for the more stressful times of their profession/life.

Eventually, playing that music at any other point will induce some level of panic when they hear it because now they've trained their brain to associate it with this stress.

One day I woke up to the usual buzzer of my decades old alarm clock and decided I would never hear that horrible thing again. I bought an alarm clock that, in theory, wakes you slowly with gradually increasing light and finally, a pleasant little bird song when it's time to get out of bed.

Now, I hate that @#&%ing bird instead of a buzzer.

Needing an alarm clock to wake up is a sign that you don't get enough sleep. You should sleep until you naturally wake up.
