Do they have similar tastes in music? Most of my classmates like rock. They think that bands like Deep Purple, Queen, Pink Floyd and others made a great breakthrough in the history of rock. But my parents think that this music is aggressive and dangerous. They say that if the music doesn’t destroy your mind, it will destroy your ear. I don’t think this music is destructive. I guess their albums are great achievements with no bad songs in them. I adore its energy, rhythm and its catchy tunes. Moreover there is much sense in the lyrics. It makes me think hard. Rock music is great. James Medison I like classical music. I’d like to know some teens who are interested in classics because this is the MUSIC, the beginning of all. I have got two favorite composers though they are very different. They are Tchaikovsky and Gershwin. I heard Tchaikovsky’s piano concert No 1. It’s fantastic. The Russians have always put so many feelings into their music. Gershwin is my idol. I’m sorry that few young people know about his works. Glenn Miller and the swing era are built on his music. Though I am not keen on jazz I like Gershwin’s music. It’s fantastic, it’s classic in jazz. Stephanie Basker
