An ex-principal hears that one of his ex-pupils wants to give workshop concerts and has an idea. The ex-pupil is delighted and things get rolling straight away.  <\/p>\n<p>The ex-principal talks to the current principal, who in turn can suggest a good concert venue and asks whether the ex-pupil would like to visit his old school the day before or after and meet the pupils from the sixth form.<\/p>\n<p>It must be a good school. Yes, it is! There weren&#8217;t many particularly strong bonds between my hometown and me, but I always have fond memories of my school. It was here that I developed from a highly sensitive eccentric into a very self-confident young man. It was here that I was inspired, supported and encouraged to become who I am. I met a lot of teachers here who I was willing to go through fire for because they could inspire me in their own way. We were invited to have minds of our own, we didn&#8217;t have to paint by numbers.<x id=\"gid_0\"><\/x>And it was here that I met my first true friends, people I looked forward to seeing again the next day, people in whose company I felt good, safe, liked and understood, with whom I could finally try out the things I had always wanted to do together. Here I got the feeling that it is very possible not to be alone with your own ideas about the world, that it is possible to be part of a community without having to bend and adapt.       <\/p>\n<p>My school provided me with a well-packed rucksack with which I could go out into the &#8220;big wide world&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It was a wonderful moment last Wednesday evening when I was able to show the school and my old friends something of what I have become over the years; to be able to tell them about who I am with the piano. I was proud and happy while playing and the Yamaha grand piano &#8211; which I had criticized the day before &#8211; felt amazingly excellent! <\/p>\n<p>BEST REGARDS WITH GREAT GRATITUDE!!!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4694\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4694\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4694\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/image1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4694\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">{%CAPTION%}<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; What kind of school must this be?
