Jessica Chiccehitto Hindman is four years old when she first hears the music that makes her want to play the violin. It was an animated film called Sarah and the Squirrel about a young girl escaping the Holocaust, accompanied by music the likes of which she had never heard. “Violin music,” her father tells her, and from that moment on, she wants to play that music. Much later she will learn that the music in the movie is the opening of the Winter concerto from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, and chills go up my spine just imagining a four-year-old hearing that music for the very first time.
