**The  story  is  inspired  from  a  newspaper  article  documenting  an  orchestra  consisting  of  special  children  who  are  students   of  a  special  school  in  Beijing,  China.  They  were  taught  music  to  stimulate  their  mind.  They  enjoy  learning  it  so  much  that   they   are   able   to   perform   in   front   of   thousands   of   crowd   after   countless   months   of   learning   and   training.   Performing   in   front  of  the  audience  boosts  their  self-­‐confidence  ...
