These days, many people believe that all students should be required to learn how to play a musical instrument. Personally I agree with that statement for various reasons. To begin with, I believe that music is a great way to help teenagers express themselves. That is because students will have the opportunity to choose what musical instrument they want to learn and what kind of music they like. That way they will feel free and they will be themselves. As a result, they will be more confident. Secondly, music will help them relax and forget about their daily routine and problems. That will happen because, when they play music they concentrate on the notes and they become absorbed with the sound and the harmony. Moreover, if music is something that they like, they will feel happy and unwind. As a result, they will calm down and they will clear their minds. To conclude with, I strongly believe that every student should learn how to play a musical instrument, because being involved with music can be highly beneficial on teenagers lives.
