I love listening to music, especially US-UK My favorite artists are Miley Cyrus and Troye Sivan; their songs always sound awesome to me

I used to have music classes back when I was in primary school and secondary school only

to form a group of at least four and perform a certain song that we chose ourselves It was so much fun
5 Do you think it is necessary for children to have music classes?
In my opinion, children should always have music classes Music has been scientifically
proven to have positive influences on one’s way of thinking and feeling, so it will do people
good if they can experience music from an early age

It’s not really to my taste, to be honest I literally cannot listen to traditional kinds of music
such as “ca tru”, “cai luong” or “cheo” I really like listening to songs created during the war though Maybe because my dad was a soldier, he often told me stories about his years in the
army and so I can somehow relate deeply to those kinds of songs
7.How much time do you spend listening to music every day?
It depends I often listen to music when I’m doing the housework or when I’m on the bus At

concentrate on school work, I don’t really listen to music as it can cause some real unwelcomed distraction
8.What is your favorite kind of music?
I don’t have a particular taste in music I can pretty much listen to everything as long as it
sounds good to me Still, I can hardly listen to Vietnamese traditional music, some countries’
folk songs and several tracks belonging to the classical genre
9.When did you start listening to this type of music?
[Let’s just say I’m into rock music]
The first time I heard a rock song was when my dad turned on the TV and there was a performance of a very famous rock band in Vietnam called “Buc Tuong” It was amazing I started searching for more songs from the Vietnamese band, and songs belonging to the same genre, and have decided ever since that rock music would be a part of my spiritual life
10.How do you feel when you listening to music?
Trang 5Relaxed and free, I guess Music, to me, is a way of hiding from all the hustle and bustle of
