“During the Gulf War, the few opportunities I had for relaxation
I always listened to music, and it brought me great peace of mind. I have shared my love of music with people throughout this
world, while listening to the drums and special instruments of the Far East, Middle East, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Far
North, and all of this started with the music appreciation course that I was taught in a third-grade elementary class in Princeton,
New Jersey. What a tragedy it would be if we lived in a world where music was not taught to children.”
- General H. Norman Schwarzkopf — United States Army
