music

Today I want to recommend a short essay.

It is from today's NYTimes.

It is not about politics or religion or current events. It is about a lone music teacher and his legacy. It is about how he drove his students to heights they had not thought possible, and how they – years later – had come to appreciate that drive.

The story is about music and high school kids and a dead teacher.
