    You can play a drinking game where you drink when you spot a white male musician. I mean, for those of you in AA.

    Education is extremely important.

      Sad... It reminds me of back when they were going crazy with trying to get everyone to pay for music in every situation. A law firm went after the Girl Scouts. A couple of days later a bipartisan bill was introduced in the House to deal with it. Congress critters told the crazy people that if they didn't know how to self regulate, that Congress was there to help them. The industry folks calmed down.

      I suspect John Williams wouldn't stand in the way.

        I wonder how good of a violin she took up? I’d be worried about what the G’s during takeoff would do to a very fine instrument. And Strads and such are often owned by museums or very wealthy patrons that provide them to artists. I don’t imagine many would want to loan one out for something like this.

          Considering the circumstances, I thought she did a nice job. And I thought the instrument has a nice sound. I wouldn't have let her borrow my Strad, but she was riding with a Billionaire maybe he would.

          And she probably didn't have much experience playing in a micro-gravity environment.

            Yeah, let's see a pianist perform on an acoustic grand piano with zero gravity.

              It would be interesting to hear how it was playing in zero gravity. (Same with piano as @Axtremus says.)

              Much more difficult I would think.

                I'd rather have the money it would take to boost the mass of a grand piano into orbit.

                    Is a piano the only common instrument that requires gravity to play normally?
