Advice to improve concentration in noisy office?

How to convince my boss to provide quiet working conditions?

I work in a noisy office. I'm forced to listen to music, and I find this hampers my concentration. My best solution so far is to come to work at 6am, but I still have to work until 5:30 so it is a long day, but the first hours are bliss.

Does the SO community have any hints on how to improve this?
