Playing the piano is a great hobby to have. I started playing the piano when I was five years old. I still really enjoy it now. It's a way to relax and cheers me up when I'm feeling down. I have a lovely reddish piano. It was a gift from my grandmother for my 13th birthday. Although it's not a brand-new piano, I really like it when I feel tired or because of studying. I often take a break to play something energetic. It helps me relax. I also like to play some pieces of beautiful music to my family members, especially my elder sister because she knows a lot about music. She loves music and piano too. I have piano lessons every week. My teacher helps me a lot. She likes classical music and her favourite composer is Chopin. I think that I like classical music too and I can play some music by my favourite composer, Beethoven. Sometimes when I am away from home, I cannot play my piano then. I really miss it. I wish that pianos were as portable as guitars and so that I could take it along with me all the time.
