I think that people can’t live without music. They listen to music, dance to music or learn to play musical instruments. Music is everywhere: at home and in the streets, on the radio and on TV, in the shops and in the parks. Different people like different kinds of music. Some people prefer pop or rock music, country or folk music, classical music or jazz. <em>Classical music, one of the kinds of music,</em> is often associated with the music of the past. Many young people don’t like to listen to classical music. It is a pity! I think that classical music is always a complex of emotions. It gives us delight, pleasure and a sense of happiness. Some of this music is sad, but I like sad music too. When we listen to classical music it pictures in our mind fragments of our life, sad and funny, it depends on the nature of music. This music, which touches hearts. This music can change a person`s life. Music can help to solve some our problems. I think classical music is relaxing. This music has been living for centuries. It is in every corner of our land. Some people don`t understand classical music, it creates a special spiritual world for the listener that enriches his inner life and makes him happy. Listen to "the Ninth Symphony " by Beethoven, you will enjoy this wonderful music. It will help you feel much better. This music will make you feel like dreaming. I think that our life without classical music, like as a novel with no idea.
