The story "The Treasure of Lemon Brown" by Walter Dean Myers opened another world for my students, a world of music, which doesn't need a language. "Where words fail, music speaks", as Hans Christian Anderson once said.
The piano live performance presented by Mrs. Irina Hammoud, a piano teacher, for the girls of grades 7 - 8 on a cold windy day was much more than sounds, octaves, and rhythms; it was also energy and emotions with a direct feedback. It was amazing how some musical pieces of different composers could change the girls' moods and thoughts in an instant.
Music is a mystery that can shape anyone into Something! It's a tool that can strengthen our minds, unlock our hidden creativity, and reach deep into our spirits.Music is that treasure, an immeasurably inexhaustible source, to which anyone can refer to at any moment of life.
