This thing whether we realize it or not does help shape how we grow and who we end up being‚ or at the very least‚ it did in my case. This is the story of the event that started my life in music and how music made me who I am today. In November of 2009 I had just had my very first recital in The Music School of Ryan Cayabyab.
