Hey @helenthearab, welcome to the Community.
Hope you're doing great!
You simply tap play what you're in the mood to play in that moment and just go to another app that does allow other audios sources, in this case Spotify, to play in background.
Please note that if you close Spotify app from the App Drawer the music will stop and you'll have to open it again.
For more tips on how to play on Spotify use this article.
Hope it help's
