You can, but its not a simple question nor a simple solution. If you
are a beginner to C++, it is likely out of your league. I'm *not* a
beginner, and I would struggle with it

It depends on what OS/platform your targeting. There is no standard way
to do it.

You have not told us before. Anyway, you might want to have a look at libSDL
(http://www.libsdl.org/)

And if that matters, you're probably in the wrong group.

In general, if the goal is just to play some background music,
and no real interaction is involved, the best solution is likely
to be to figure out the system dependent command line request to
do it, and invoke that via the system() function. On most
systems, system() will return something which can later be
converted into a command line request to kill the process, if
that's needed as well. (On the systems I'm familiar with,
system returns the process id, and something like:

std:stringstream cmd ;
cmd << "kill " << systemReturnValue ;
system( cmd.str().c_str() ) ;

can be used to stop the process.)
