Rondo in C is a story about a piano student that plays Bethoven’s Rondo in C at her recital. One guy has a memory of flying geese, another lady has a memory in her mother’s house, and a kid has memories about running down a hill with his friends. An older lady remembers her life in Vienna, a girl remembers falling snow, and an older man remembers holding his significant other. The Rondo in C that the piano student plays creates an emotional response for each person in the room. This book reflects the power and importance of music. The expressions of the people show their happiness. I would let students listen to the composition Rondo in C, and then ask them to write a sentence about how they feel about the song. ( )

Beautiful book about the way music can trigger memories for everyone. Excellent book to read for music appreciation. ( )
