Ielts Essay - Musical Instruments 


Music, as most suggest and accept, is an integral part of human society; and is followed by almost everyone, but does this opinion really resonate at similar levels when it comes to playing musical instruments? There is an intense argument with support and dissent over this  issue.

Playing musical instruments – string, keyboards, or even percussion, etc. – helps ensure mental wellbeing. People practicing this activity can  de-stress themselves faster and better since they feel, while playing an instrument, to be having a complete control over what they are doing. This helps mitigate stress – which is caused mostly due to feeling of lack of  control over the surroundings and environment. Furthermore, being a good distraction from mundane that is free of any pre-set code of discipline, people playing some music themselves are able to escape the predictable routines, and relax.

Similarly, playing music on any apparatus, helps enhance concentration, patience and creative skills. It has been experienced that the ones playing music need to perform repetitive routines several times and many a time think out of the box. This gets interpreted in form of improved focus towards any work, increased patience to handle difficult jobs, and become creative – as people are able to develop unique way of working and finding solutions.

However, playing music is alleged carrying some strong demerits too. Many believe that this activity carried a potential of becoming an addiction, since the people getting deeply involved can indulge deeply and ignore all other important chores – including personal and professional. This can also turn out to be irritating for those around as individuals playing music tend to live in their own world that is bereft of reality.


In a nutshell, I believe that playing musical instruments can prove to be quite productive in long run.
