    I sit here 1+ years into a military conflict in the Ukraine rooted in aggression started many years before that and from beyond Ukraine’s borders. If the combatants on all sides had the chance to absorb the beauty of music such as this, perhaps they would refuse to be driven by the people exploiting them.
