Music is one of the things that I have enjoyed ever since I was little, whether it’s listening to music or performing music. When it comes to music for me, I love to sing, dance, and play a wind instrument. Music can help me feel good about myself and is also a way for me to express my musical talents.
Looking back to grade school, I was involved in some music groups my school had such as band and chorus. I played the trumpet in elementary school, then I played the clarinet in middle school and high school. While in chorus from fifth grade and all the way to high school senior year, I have been an alto for most of my chorus years and a soprano a few years. In tenth and eleventh grade, I was in a jazz band and ended up getting two solos for concerts in eleventh grade. I’ve had a few solos in the chorus at a couple of school concerts.
When it comes to listening to music, I have a lot of favorite songs, bands, and singers that I listen to almost every day.
