This is probably where you want to get into GarageBand. You would want
the music on one track and your voice on the other. As far as noise that
depends on your room and your mic placement/proximity. If you just use
the mic built into your mac you're going to get a lot of room noise and
sounds from the hard drive etc. Instead I would hook up something
external and be close to the mic to overcome any ambient noise.

Can you edit the volume in quick time?

anything fancy. Others can recommend better apps such as
GarageBand which has a lot more features. Generally with Quicktime
you can trim junk off the beginning or end fairly easily. Load up
your clip and then choose Trim from the Edit menu (or hit
Command-T). That puts you in the editor where you can navigate to
the "multiple indicators timeline". Interact with that and you'll
find two draggable indicators for start time and end time. You can
jump between those with VO-Up and VO-Down. To change the value of
either one you interact with it and then VO-Left or VO-right.
Plain old home and end moves the play head to either end of what
you have left. Once you have the positions where you want them
stop interacting with the timeline (you will have to VO-shift-up
twice) find the trim button and action that. Escape will take you
out of edit and all that's left is what you didn't trim. Then you
can choose iTunes from the Share menu to dump your trimmed audio
into iTunes to do whatever you like with it.
