Con Anima, a Niente | Isadora Capri
COMPLETE
There was something innately intimate about music-the way it left one's soul bare, revealed all imperfections, all insecurities. It was trust in its highest form, allowing the listener to chip a piece off the performer's heart and judge it in its entirety.
And it was intrusive-perhaps that was why Victoria played, but did not feel.
At least not until Isadora Capri came along and seized her heart: slowly, at first, and then all at once.
Private lessons. Late night talks. Devotion. Passion. Feeling. Con anima, a niente-with feeling, to nothing.

Important to note that I do not support teacher/student relationships in real life. Obviously the main character is of age though.
Lots of musical terminology-might need a dictionary for this one, although most of it is explained through writing and context clues!
Happy reading :)
