As a musician I find it interesting that it is music that bridges the gap between two peoples in this story. Nowadays a certain style of music is so often used to define a group with common interests, effectively marking a boundary against all others. This encounter promotes the idea of music as a universal language, a method of furthering understanding that leads to peaceful coexistence, even friendship.
