1. A Teen's Personal Guide to Music on the Web

2. Personal Musical Interests
I have been exposed to many different genres of music from my brothers and my mother
Country from my mother, Rock from my younger brother, and Rap/Hip Hop from my older brother
This has led to my appreciation for all music genres
I started playing the tuba in middle school but switched to the alto saxophone (which I still play) after I moved to a school that didn’t have access to a tuba
I listen to all different kinds of music on Pandora, and change stations in relation to my mood and what I am doing at the time
