The Mozart Question

Lesley, a young reporter, cannot believe her good luck--she is to interview the famous violinist, Paulo Levi. Ask him anything she is told, except the Mozart question. In her nervousness, Lesley blurts out that she knows she cannot ask him the "Mozart question" and Paulo decides it is time to tell the story of his parents and why he cannot ever play Mozart's music. This is a short, but very powerful story of how his parents were able to survive the Holocaust only because of their musical talent, but were forced to watch helplessly as many others were taken to the gas chambers.
