I'd heard through the grapevine that our college orchestra director, Mr. D., prioritized music majors when choosing students to play for musicals and recitals.
After hearing a student gripe to the director about being chosen for such performances so often, Mr. D. responded as I'd predicted, almost verbatim.
"You're a music major," he told the student matter-of-factly. "This is what you do. You play music."
