she can also sing and dance brilliantly and she currently has a leading part in a
French musical. She can also play the piano very well. In her spare time, Sally likes to
relax at home by watching romantic films. She has no plans to return to Britain.
Tom Hammond is from Glasgow, but he lives in New York. He’s 18 and he’s a music
student. Tom can play the piano and the guitar very well. He also writes songs with his
friend John. Tom writes the music and John writes the lyrics. When they’re happy with
a new song, they usually perform it to students at the college. They love to have an
audience and would really like to be in a band. When he isn’t composing, Tom
downloads his favourite music from the Internet.
