Do you think that attending the concert in "A Wagner Matinee" is a positive experience for Aunt Georgiana? Why or why not? Be sure to include specific details from the story in your response.

I would say that i was definitely a positive experience. Why? We have to take into consideration that Aunt Georgiana is a woman who has deprived herself of those precious things which have fed her soul, which is why she appears to others as worn and aged beyond her years. We get a feeling she is stiff and worn because Aunt Georgiana has closed much of herself from memories of what she used to enjoy. However, when she is at the concert she seems to relax her stiffness. Furthermore, when the orchestra begins to play, a "silence of thirty years" is broken in the aunt.
