“You could practically see the light bulbs going on above people’s heads ... At the end of one of Kapilow’s points, the J. Crew teenager behind me said aloud and to no one in particular: ‘Wow, that was awesome! Did you hear that?’ ... The audience could decipher the music in a new, deeper way. It was the total opposite of passive listening.”
