How to run multiple apps on iphone

[margotb822]

Ok, I just got an iphone and I'm wondering if it's possible to run multiple apps at the same time. I'd like to be able to listen to music and do other things with the phone. Is this possible?

2. yes, but how

I don't know another way of accessing the apps other than the home screen. But, when I press the home button, my music app stops.

3. I use the iPod button and then it starts playing I hit the home screen button

And then I hit whatever app I want to use.
