Music is a big part of our lives regardless of who we are and where we are from. As a writing exercise choose two or three pieces of music that are important to you. Play them if you can and then immediately after write notes about the memories they invoke.
Can you make these recollections into a story? This may involve standing back from the memories you have evoked and writing about yourself as a fictional character.
Try writing continually for five minutes about your music and what it makes you think of. Write stream of consciousness.
Could you write a poem of any style made from your recollections?
If you wrote about all the songs that have formed a soundtrack to your life you might have a novel...
I'm thinking now about Kung fu fighting. It always reminds me of a fantastic holiday I had as a kid.
