Used sparingly IMO, to heighten the love intensity and close connection within the couple. Gosling was portrayed as jazz musician, so there is a lot of music, but not basically a musical.

Billy said it well: they pull you into their love circle, then tear your heart out in the end as they each commit relational suicide. It wasn't circumstances-- it was choice.

No wonder the Academy didn't give them best picture. People walked out of theaters hurting.
The emotional strength generated speaks to how good this film is, but it still sucks. I won't bother a second time.
