What kids learned or liked most – Part 1. I liked your classical music show. Thank you for introducing music to all of us - all the keys, notes and chords. I really liked the stories and how you let us make our own music. (P.S. I play the guitar) Something that amazing me was that Igor Stvayinsky’s parents didn’t even want him to be a composer. They wanted him to be a lawyer. My favorite part was when you taught us about harmony. \"Made me smile.\" Barbara Fitzgerald

\"Charming, very articulate.\" Ross Care

What kids learned or liked most . . . cont. Thank you for telling us a story about a composer that hated school but loved music. I learned that our school are not bad at making songs. You and your partner were in sink the hole time. Thank you for coming to our school. You should play all around so children everywhere can hear your music. You are very good. You assistant was a delightful piano player also. My favorite part was when you and your assistant played the can-can. \"Wonderful way to stay connected. Stay safe and healthy.\" Rosa Lee Measures

\"This did make me smile. Thanks!\" Anthony R Strauss, Esq.

Lots of interest in Nuvi, including his financial well-being Thank you for playing for free. I heard that you came for free, but you charge sometimes. So thank you for that. How do you make money? Do you play at concerts for money? I like your violen. It looked really old and expensive. How much money was your violen? Who’s your favorite composer? When you got your violin, did you give it a name? You are the best musician I have ever heard. \"Really nice . . . well done.\" Jane Deknatel

\"Thanks for doing this. It is cheering.\" Mary Acoh

A mishap or two My brother says band is dumb Thank you for the music.I was absent but thank you anyway. Some people were booing but I thought the music was wonderful. It’s a shame the video didn’t work, but I enjoyed the program anyway. \"These are great! Thanks for sharing them!\" B. Steel

\"One of the best, I think!\" Betsy Chess

And more . . . I want to play evry inserment ever made. I also want to make an inserment. I play the piano and some day I’m going to write and play the most famous song in the world. You have inspired me. You might see me at one of your recidles agian. I loved being a composer. I hope you are very sicksesful in life. \"Yes. We hope Ben is \"sicksesful\" too!! Barbara Meister
