You could also try the AVAudioPlayer utility Framework:

you can do like this

if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"music://"]]) 
  [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"music://"]];

for iOS9 you need to integrate the LSApplicationQueriesSchemes in your .plist also , ref this link once

You can open apps from your app by using iphone URL Schemes.

NSString *stringURL = @"music:";
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:stringURL];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url];

Check this Iphone_URL_Scheme post for more details. it have great explanation to how to open app from own app.

Hope this will help :)
