SAMPLE ANSWER
Soft music is my best preference. Piano attracts me most. But unluckily I am unable to play it. So, I dream to play the piano someday.
The piano is a stringed musical tool. The exact date of invention of this musical device is unknown. It is made with woods, strings and keyboards. There is a lid before the strings to amplify the sound. The tunes it creates are charming. There are various types of pianos and it requires a special set of skills to play it. The tone is produced when the pianist strikes the keyboard and the keys strike the strings. So, the pianist needs to know about the basics of playing the piano before starting to play it.
There are different types of pianos are available. Among them, grand piano, electric or digital piano etc. are notable. Usually, a piano is made with wood. The metal strings, that produce the sounds, is located inside the wooden case. The strings are attached to a heavy metal frame so that they can produce the right type of tone. A padded hammer is attached to the keyboard. When the pianist strikes the keys, the padded keys strike on the strings and the sound is produced. In fact, the vibration is created, within a frequency, with the strings when they get the stroke. When the key is released, the vibration is stopped.
The sound of a piano is very lucid. A pianist mostly creates the sounds after the notes he gets before him. According to the notes, he presses the keys and the sweet melodies are produced. In fact, if some presses the keyboard, there will be sound from the piano but if you want melodies, you are to follow the notes. Each of the pianists has their different styles to play the keyboard but when they follow the notes, the melodies will remain the same. Actually, piano produces a heavenly tune. The tone is heavy and sweet. It appears that the listeners are also feeling the vibration of the music in line with the vibration of the strings.
I would like to be able to play it for many reasons. Firstly, I watched a movie named ‘The Pianist’ and it had a great influence on my mind to learn to play the instrument. Besides, the tone that is generated by the keystrokes has a different appeal to me. I have listened to some of my favourite songs in piano and the feelings were outstanding. The tones are soft but enabled to bring a sense of comfort to the listeners. Some of the best songs are in piano and they make me feel really good. So, I would like to be able to play piano and hope will learn it soon.

My favourite musical instrument to listen to is the guitar. I like the fact that there are different types of guitar, like classical, acoustic and electric. I love the variety of sounds a guitar can make.
Have you ever learned to play a musical instrument?
I took some guitar lessons when I was younger and still have a guitar at home. I don’t play it much nowadays. I wish I had more time to practise.
Do you think children should learn to play an instrument at school?
Yes, I think it’s a great skill and it’s really enjoyable to be able to play a musical instrument. All children should be given this opportunity.
How easy would it be to learn to play an instrument without a teacher?
It would probably be more difficult without a teacher. You need someone to show you what to do and correct your mistakes. You need a lot of discipline to teach yourself.
