In my school, music is not just for people who play an instrument. It is for everyone. We believe music is an
important part of life and that everyone should have the right to enjoy it.
We have music lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Not everyone plays a musical instrument, but everyone
wants to learn a little bit about music. It is never too late to play an instrument. During our lessons, we learn aboutmusicians like Beethoven and Schumann. We not only listen to the music they wrote, but also learn about their
personal history.
And it’s not just musicians who take part in our concerts. Everyone can take part! Teachers give their students
some percussion instruments (打击乐器) that are easy to play. I have a few friends who don’t play music. But they
played these percussion instruments well for our concert. I asked them what it felt like. One of my friends said, “I
felt like I was a star performer (表演者). It made me feel confident to be on the stage (舞台).”
Each grade is able to perform in concerts. When I was in Grade 7, my classmates and I performed for our parents.
We have many other musical activities. For example, last month, I took part in the Young Musician of the Year
Competition (比赛) in my school this year. I played the piano and won the first.
