Among the trainees is a young woman named Ahlam Sabri, who trains on the violin, and believes that music helps young people to get away from psychological stress resulted from the war, violence and destruction.
"I like to learn music because I love it since I was young. And another reason is the situation we are now going through, as I think the music can take us away from the sounds of guns, ordnances and bullets," she said.
Another trainee named Hail al-Zubaidi, who is training on the oud, said "what pushed me to music is my love for it, because it is a message of love and peace".
He said "over the ongoing crisis and war, a person needs to entertain himself and others rather than to hear explosions. And what is better than hearing explosions is to hear music."
Yemen has been mired into a civil war since late 2017, when the Houthis overran much of the country and seized all northern provinces, including Sanaa.
The civil war has killed more than 10,000 people, mostly civilians, displaced 3 million others, and pushed the impoverished Arab country to the brink of famine.
