"Do we need to know why something works ..."
Yes. Because until you can explain something it has no credibility."
Rubbish, that's what art is for, to demonstrate something that words alone cannot explain. Music effects us on a spiritual level, no-one can explain why music brings images into our minds, and even if they could, they would be incredibly hard pushed to prove WHY and WHCH images. That's blurring the line between objective reality and subjective totality, but it certainly remains credible.
Are you an objective subject or an objective object? Give me a reductionist on a plate please, with a side helping of empirical tomato ketchup ;-
