Appreciation
How do you feel when you listen to Moonlight on the Second Spring and Symphony No. 41
A Bing’s Moonlight on the Second Spring awakens sadness in me. Listening to the soft sound of the erhu reminds me of the composer’s tough life. By the end, my sadness is replaced by admiration for A Bing’s amazing talent.
When I listen to Mozart’s Symphony No. 41, it makes me feel full of energy. I felt so struck and amazed that I didn’t realize the music was over. It is fun to listen to.

A home video of a young boy's emotional reaction to watching his favorite band, Coldplay, perform has melted the hearts of millions.
Huillo,6 who has autism looks overwhelmed, fighting back tears. As Chris Martin sings the lyrics "tears stream down your face", Huillo's father too begins to cry, mouthing the words to his son and kissing the boy's face.
Huillo's father published the video on his social networks, which immediately went viral and a few weeks later, it was seen by the members of the band, who stated the following on his official Twitter account: "This kind of thing makes it all worthwhile."
When the British band returned to Mexico City, Huillo was not only invited to attend the show but also performed with them. The young artist performed his self-composed song, "Different Is Okay", getting a round of applause not only from the crowd but also from the musicians themselves.
Music is the utmost pleasure in life; music is the clear spring of life; music is the furnace of temperamental refinement.
