A great segment on Today Show today (Sunday 3/22/15) featuring the "Louisville (KY) Leopards".

I didn't know the background of this music class when Jim posted up ... great story ... another great inspirational teacher ... Diane Downs teaching "lessons" that will last a lifetime. 

(Story has Prince's drummer Hannah "Ford" Welton as well ... a former "Leopard".)
