TEST MUSIC

Read the text

People can not live without music. They listen to music, dance to music or learn to play musical instruments. There is music everywhere: at home, in a concert hall, in the park, at the seaside, in the forest and even in the street. We often sing when we fell happy, or when we celebrate different holidays. 

Music is not only a combination of pleasant sounds. It is an art which reflects life. Music reflects people's ideas and emotions. In this world of ours, filled with conflicts, tragedies, joys and hopes, music strives to speak to people of what is most important, urgent and poignant.

Music in the lives of different people is different: some compose music, others play music, and others only listen to it. A lot of people who can not play any musical instrument love to listen to music either at home or at a concert. Different people like different kinds of music. You may prefer pop or rock music, country or folk music, classical music or jazz, but you certainly can not think of a day without music.

Most people also like to produce music – to play different musical instruments. Very often girls prefer to play the piano, or the violin, and boys usually play the guitar or the accordion. Some boys choose the drums as their favourite musical instrument.

When many musical instruments play in band, we call this band an orchestra. Of course, the music of the orchestra sounds the best.
