     Hi! My name is Andrew. I'm twenty years old. I love music. My earliest memory of music is the songs my mother used to sing to me when I was about 3 or 4 years old. I used to have music lessons at school too. My mother wanted me to take up the piano, but I didn't like it at all because I loved to play the guitar. When I was 10 I bought my first record with some birthday money. I think it was the record by the Beatles.

     As I grew older, my musical taste changed. When I was a tennager, we used to go to clubs and pop concerts to see groups playing live, mostly rock and pop. At the time I didn't like classical music at all. Later, when I went to university, I really got into classical music and started going to concerts. I was particularly keen on opera.

     Nowadays, I listen to all sorts of music, but I'm not too keen on loud rock music. On the whole I prefer classical music and opera, but I still listen to pop music in my car and play the guitar sometimes. I haven't been to any concerts for ages, but I've always got a CD on at home. Music is an important part in my life.
