Business Overview

After all, music can't stop war. You can't cure the plague. I can't swell my stomach or keep out the cold. Is there anything music can do other than soothe us and make us forget the reality we don't want to see? I know. I was excited when they played symphonies by Beethoven and Shostakovich. I was mad. The more intense the music, the more it reveals the aggression and exclusivity in me. I realized through my performance that I had the potential to be violent and discriminate against others. I know. When I played Bach's Passion, I was hurt. The quiet, painful music makes me see the dirty parts of me that I don't want to see. What a foolish and miserable person I was, I learned through my performance. I watched the news. People discriminated against people. They may or may not have been involved in epidemics and wars. The man was wounded, hurt, or dead. Why, why should this terrible thing happen? Even if music can't stop a war or cure a disease, can't it at least keep you and me from hurting someone else? We can all easily become perpetrators. Doesn't music teach us that? I want to believe in the tiny possibilities of music.
