So goes the music of life!

Extract:
"Over the months that followed, Edith and Pierre's friendship grew stronger. At every opportunity, they shared moments of joy, laughter and complicity.
Far from her initial procrastination, Edith had rediscovered her joie de vivre, and Pierre encouraged her to pursue her dreams. He helped her learn music, solfeggio and singing. Thanks to him, Édith felt increasingly confident and happy. With him, she discovered that she could find happiness in every little moment of everyday life. Thanks to him, she learned that she could overcome her handicap. Pierre simply enabled her to learn how to live again.
He accompanied her as she learned, teaching her to tame the darkness, to use her other senses to explore and understand the world around her. Édith discovered minute details, intoxicating scents, moving textures, transforming each experience into a living tableau that Édith could grasp with her heart and mind. Pierre offered Edith new possibilities for discovery and fulfillment in a world now devoid of light.
Their complicity had allowed them to find each other, while their shared passion for music had largely contributed to their quickly becoming inseparable."
