For as long as I could remember, I have wanted to be a drum major of my high school marching band, The Mighty Marching Bucks of Hoke County High (MMB). A drum major is the leader of the marching band and also second in command under the Director. Before I was honored and presented with this title, I had what is known to be the “drum major instinct”. The “drum major instinct” was well described in Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s final sermon “The Drum Major Instinct”.
the number of ten thousand hours at age twenty for the best violinists was only an average. Half of the ten violinists in that group hadn’t actually accumulated ten thousand hours at that age”.

Even if they died tragically, the violins still provide their culture. Yet, others may argue that the violins did not help the Jewish culture but hurt the Jewish culture. They may say this due to the fact that the prisoners played classicals on their violins to calm the Jews, making it easier to kill them. This is very wrong because the violins helped the Jewish culture survive and didn’t hurt it. The violin almost serves as a symbol for redemption because it is representing the Jewish culture.
After seven years of playing the violin, I can proudly say that music has become a part of me.

Thankfully this dreadful act of violence is not something I can relate to personally, although I do appreciate it bringing drama and intrigue to the short story. It makes us ask ourselves what could possibly be so bad about a man playing violin that it led her to carry out this awful crime. It even makes us question, was there something else going on in her life at the time that encouraged her to come this decision or had past experiences in her life maybe played a part in this heinous act. I wonder what must have been the last straw for this woman, her breaking point when she realized that she just couldn’t stick it any more.
